Rhizobacteria is an important ingredient for growth and health of medicinal herbs, and synthesis of pharmacological effective substances from it. In this study, we investigated the community structure and composition of rhizobacteria in  Baphicacanthus cusia  (NeeS) Bremek via 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. We obtained an average of 3,371 and 3,730 OTUs for bulk soil and rhizosphere soil samples respectively. Beta diversity analysis suggested that the bacterial community in the rhizosphere was distinctive from that in the bulk soil, which indicates that  B.cusia  can specifically recruit microbes from bulk soil and host in the rhizosphere.  Burkholderia  was significantly enriched in the rhizosphere.  Burkholderia  is a potentially beneficial bacteria that has been reported to play a major role in the synthesis of indigo, which was a major effective substances in  B. cusia . In addition, we found that  Bacilli  were depleted in the rhizosphere, which are useful for biocontrol of soil-borne diseases, and this may explain the continuous cropping obstacles in  B. cusia . Our results revealed the structure and composition of bacterial diversity in  B. cusia  rhizosphere, and provided clues for improving the medicinal value of  B. cusia  in the future.
