Abstract: The research progress on phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) were reviewed in aspects of species diversity, quantity, distribution, phosphate- solubilizing ability and the effects on plant growth in the paper. The results from many researches showed that phosphate-solubilizing bacteria are common in soil, and their amount and species number in rhizosphere are greater than in bulk soil. Most phosphate rock can be resolved by the PSB, and it hence provides bioavailable phosphorus for plant. In addition to solving rock phosphate, PSB also promotes plant growth, this has been proven to be due to excretion of plant hormones by PSB. Respective research area was also put forward at the end of this paper.
