    Abstract: A phosphorus-dissolving bacterium RBC25 regulated by Phosphate deficiency and application thereof are provided. The phosphorus-dissolving bacterium RBC25 is obtained by isolating from roots of soybean planted in acidic soil. The phosphorus-dissolving bacterium RBC25 belongs to Burkholderia sp., which has a dissolving capacity for insoluble inorganic phosphate and organic phosphate. The phosphorus-dissolving bacterium RBC25 is regulated by phosphate deficiency, which can effectively colonize on soybean roots under phosphate-deficient conditions, and thus promote soybean growth under low-phosphate conditions. The phosphorus-dissolving bacterium RBC25 releases dissolved phosphate by dissolving insoluble inorganic phosphate and organic phosphate, so that it helps plants to absorb insoluble phosphate. Compared with the non-inoculated control, inoculating RBC25 in greenhouses can increase the biomass and phosphorus content of soybean by 39.6% and 35.
