Abstract Plant diseases caused by a group of phytopathogens like bacteria, viruses, nematodes, and fungi pose a severe challenge to global agriculture by reducing crop quality and yield. Due to the impact on the environment and resultant health risks, the conventional reliance on chemical pesticides for disease regulation has led to issues. The Pseudomonas’ ability to produce a diverse range of antagonistic compounds, they have emerged as a potential biocontrol agent as an environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative. Aside from inhibiting phytopathogens, these systems promote plant growth and induce systemic resistance. This review discusses Pseudomonas’ potential for biocontrol, emphasizes the impact of phytopathogens on crops, and summarizes key studies demonstrating their effectiveness against various plant diseases. Generally, integrated plant disease management and sustainable agriculture hold much promise with Pseudomonas-based biocontrol methods.
