Abstract Increasing levels of pervasive harmful chemicals like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been linked to unprecedentedly high cases several illnesses, loss biodiversity, and environmental degradation, posing a threat the sustainability life. Several biodegradation procedures proposed for cleaning up contaminated sites, among which rhizoremediation, type phytoremediation, is perceived be one most cost-efficient methods has good public acceptance. To enhance effectiveness use transgenic plants deployed; however, many studies demonstrated that rhizosphere microbial communities are actively involved in degradation hydrocarbons. The plant thus facilitates formidable support cross-communication through root exudates, rhizodeposition. Unlike conventional microbiology procedures, throughput metagenomic approaches unveil both individual community functional capacities, novel species, gene molecular composition, allowing alteration growth promotion, resistance PAHs, metabolism contaminant compounds. This article presents an updated overview modifying soil effective enhanced rhizoremediation hydrocarbon-polluted soil. Graphical abstract
