Does the association between sugarcane (saccharum spp.) and diazotrophic microorganisms provide pest resistance?

Gluconacetobacter sp. and Azospirillum sp. are beneficial endophytic diazotrophic bacteria that can live in association with sugarcane. These bacteria can provide fixed-nitrogen and plant growth hormones to host plants, therefore promoting increase in plant biomass.
