      3.1 Introduction

      Medicinal plants are a major group of crops that are considered very valuable due to their role in helping people maintain good health. These medicinal plants are traditionally used as herbal formulations for the prevention and treatment of diseases (Williamson 2003). About 80% of the world’s population depends on medicinal herbs directly or indirectly as reported by the World Health Organization (Kasilo and Trapsida 2010). These medicinal plants are associated with many beneficial bacteria. The microbes have a positive and antagonistic effect with other microbes in the soil. Moreover, the rhizosphere biome helps plants grow as well as manage pathogenic microorganisms residing in the rhizosphere ruthlessly to break the protective shield and overwhelm the innate plant defense mechanism (Hashem et al. 2017; Dubey et al. 2019.

Bioactive phytochemicals were the focus of previous medicinal plant research, however, because to the realization that a considerable number of phyto-therapeutic chemicals are really created by related microorganisms or through contact with their host, the focus is currently moving. The host rhizosphere, a narrow zone of the soil contains more than 30,000 prokaryotic species and a large number of microbial cells in a one-gram root (Berendsen 2012). These are attracted by rhizosphere plant root secretion and deposits into the soil. Among all microbes, Bacillus and Pseudomonas are well-known genera that are used to produce organic biofertilizers and improve soil fertility and biogeochemical cycles for better growth of the entire plant (Freitas et al. 2004). The tolerance and secondary metabolites mechanism for commercial medicinal plants has not been investigated. So, there is a need to determine the response of medicinal plants under stress conditions, as salt stress reduced the quality of essential oils and secondary metabolites in medicinal plants. Both biotic and abiotic stresses are significant constraints in agriculture production, which is affected by several factors such as hormonal and nutritional imbalance, ion toxicity, physiological disorders, and susceptibility to disease (Dubey et al. 2018; Malla et al. 2018).

      In this study, we discuss plants and microbes and their interaction with the microbiomes and implications of abiotic stresses toward medicinal plant response; physiological, biological, and molecular mechanisms; and microbe-mediated stress-alleviation processes. Less information is available for the molecular mechanism of metabolites in medicinal plants. Modern omics approaches, i.e. quantitative trait loci, functional genomics techniques, proteomics, and mass spectrometry, are used to understand plant–microbe interactions to optimize under abiotic stresses (Kumar and Dubey 2020).

      3.2 Structure and Function of Microbiota

Plant rhizosphere contains microorganisms including bacteria, algae, fungi, actinomycetes, and protozoa, among which bacteria are important contributors in the rhizosphere (Kaymak 2010). Actinomycetes belong to filamentous bacteria (gram positive) with a high guanine–cytosine ratio in their DNA, and they are good sources of natural compounds used in the pharmaceutical industry (Golinska et al. 2015). Endophytic actinomycetes showed enhanced growth and decreased disease infestation through the production of bioactive secondary metabolites. Some important bioactive compounds that are released by host plants and their therapeutic properties along with microorganisms are presented in Table 3.1. Moreover, they alter plant physiology by stimulating the acquired resistance in medicinal plants. Specific antibiotics produced by genera of Penicillium, Trichoderma, Aspergillus, and Actinomycetes may enhance producer diligence when competitors or predators are present in soil habitats. Moreover, Azospirillum, Gluconacetobacter, Pseudomonas, and Rhizobium, Bacillus, and Paenibacillus and gram-positive genera are also included in this circle. Plant–microbe mutualism produces diverse biochemical mechanism that improves bacterial health and ultimately plant growth (Bulgarelli et al. 2013). It also enables plants to maintain microbiota in the soil. The concentration of the bacteria found around the roots of plants is greater than the rest of the soil. It might also be due to the presence of nutrients including sugars, amino acids, and organic acids as well as other small molecules from plant root exudates that fix one-third of carbon by the plant (Badri et al. 2009). However, it mostly depends on soil type and host genotype interaction. Both the type and number of bacteria found in different soils are influenced by soil conditions. It was also influenced by soil temperature, moisture, chemicals as well as the concentration of the salts, and the number and types of crop plants present in the soil. Moreover, the effect of specific bacterium on the plant may change with the change of conditions. For example, a bacterium facilitates plant growth either by fixing phosphorus compounds or by fixing nitrogen that benefits only plants (Kumar et al. 2015, 2016). Plants with medicinal properties, their use, and secondary metabolites production under abiotic stress condition are presented in Table 3.1 .
