Rhizobacteria reside in the rhizosphere, and those having beneficial effects on plants are termed plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria. These rhizobacteria are equipped with a number of mechanisms through which they improve plant growth in diverse agricultural settings. Organisms found in the rhizosphere include bacteria, fungi, oomycetes, nematodes, protozoa, algae, viruses, archaea, and arthropods. Plants locally influence the composition and activity of their rhizosphere microbiome by altering soil pH, soil structure, and oxygen availability and by providing an energy source of carbon‐rich exudates. The endorhizosphere includes portions of the cortex and endodermis in which microbes and cations can occupy the "free space" between cells. The rhizoplane is the medial zone directly adjacent to the root including the root epidermis and mucilage. Such microbes modify the soil pH by producing various organic and inorganic acids and other metabolites through a mechanism known as rhizosphere acidification. Beneficial soil microbes perform fundamental functions such as nutrient cycling, breaking down crop residues, and stimulating plant growth. While the role of microbes to maintain soil health and contribute to crop performance is clear, the soil biological component is extremely difficult to observe and manage. The rhizosphere is the zone of soil surrounding a plant root where the biology and chemistry of the soil are influenced by the root. This zone is about 1 mm wide, but has no distinct edge. The rhizosphere is thus the zone of soil influenced by roots through the release of substrates that affect microbial activity. The rhizoplane is the root surface, including the strongly adhering root particles.Bacillus, Rhizobium, Pseudomonas, Azotobacter, Burkholderia, Enterobacter, Microbacterium, Serratia, Burkholderia, and Beijerinckia are the most significant PSB.
