Abstract: The endosymbiotic gram positive and negative endophytic bacteria that originate from epiphytic bacterial communities colonize and build up a barrier against pathogenic organisms (Kloepper et al., 1997; Rosenblueth and Martinez- Romero, 2006; Higgins et al., 2007; Panchal and Ingle, 2011). Influenced by the biotic and abiotic factors in host plants they produce bio active and growth competitive interactions (Owen et al., 2004; Ting et al., 2010; Hallmann et al., 2011; Sheng Qin et al., 2011). These bacteria obstinately survive in nature by a wide variety of microbe-microbe interactions (Hallmann et al., 1997; Zinniel et al., 2002; Rosenblueth and Martinez-Romero, 2006; Benardi-Wenzel et al., 2010; Saunders et al., 2010; Joseph and Mini, 2011).
