A currently serious agronomic concern for paddy soils is arsenic (As) contamination. Paddy soils are mostly utilized for rice cultivation. Arsenite (As(III)) is prevalent in paddy soils, and its high mobility and toxicity make As uptake by rice substantially greater than that by other food crops. Globally, interest has increased towards using As-resistant plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) to improve plant metal tolerance, promote plant growth, and immobilize As to prevent its uptake and accumulation in the edible parts of rice as much as possible. This review focuses on the As-resistant PGPB characteristics influencing rice growth and the mechanisms by which they function to alleviate As toxicity stress in rice plants. Several recent examples of mechanisms responsible for decreasing the availability of As to rice and coping with As stresses facilitated by the PGPB with multiple PGP traits (e.g., phosphate and silicate solubilization, the production of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase, phytohormones, and siderophore, N2 fixation, sulfate reduction, the biosorption, bioaccumulation, methylation, and volatilization of As, and arsenite oxidation) are also reviewed. In addition, future research needs about the application of As-resistant PGPB with PGP traits to mitigate As accumulation in rice plants are described. © 2023 Elsevier GmbH
