Abstract: The common mechanisms of plant growth-promoting microorganisms were summarized, including phosphate solubilization, potassium solubilization, iron carrier production, nitrogen fixation, and plant growth regulator production, and the novel growth-promoting mechanisms of plant growth-promoting microorganisms, such as secondary metabolites, beneficial microorganism recruitment, and synthetic flora, were analyzed. The research and application of plant growth-promoting microorganisms in soil remediation, improving plant stress resistance and resistance to diseases and pests were discussed. The development and application of plant growth-promoting microorganisms as a green resource in the future were prospected, in order to provide new research ideas for the in-depth exploration of the growth-promoting mechanism of plant growth-promoting microorganisms, and lay the foundation for promoting the green development of agriculture.

Key words: plant growth-promoting microorganisms, growth promoting mechanism, soil remediation, plant stress resistance, green agriculture
