The final, formatted version of the article will be published soon.

The order of authors in the author list of the published paper was erroneously given as: Cece Qiao 1, Qingqin Shao 1, Jingli Fu 1, Xueyun Zheng 1, Jianrong Zhao 1, Lantian Ren 1 *, Jing Yang 1 *, Wenge Wu 1,2 and Jianfei Wang 1" [Cece Qiao1†, Jing Yang1†, Qingqin Shao1, Jingli Fu1, Xueyun Zheng1, Jianrong Zhao1, Lantian Ren1*, Wenge Wu1, 2, Jianfei Wang1 ]. † These authors share first authorship. Namely, Cece Qiao and Jing Yang contributed equally to this work, they were the co-first authors. [There were some basic error in the 2.Materials and methods - 2.1 Site overview and experimental layout]. A correction has been made to the section [2 Materials and methods, 2.1 Site overview and experimental layout, Paragraph 1]: "This experimental site was originally a rural residential area and had been converted into clay loam soil approximately five years before the study. Then the field experiment has been conducted in He County, Maanshan City, Anhui Province, China (31°76′80″N, 118°30′07″E) for four years, demonstrating that the B. subtilis-based bio-organic fertilizer has a a significant ability to promote plant growth. It has a temperate climate, and the average temperature during the rice planting days was 24.8°C. Baseline soil characteristics indicated poor fertility, with a pH of 7.29, organic matter (SOM) of 7.54 g kg-1, total N, P and K (TN, TP, TK) were at 0.85 g kg-1, 0.65 g kg-1, 4.18 g kg-1, available P and K (AP, AK) were at 9.90 mg kg-1, and 36.00 mg kg-1, respectively." The original version of this article has been updated. Text correction 2 Adding/removing text [There were some basic error in the Soil collection, properties characterization, and DNA isolation]. A correction has been made to the section [2 Materials and methods, 2.2 Soil collection, properties characterization, and DNA isolation, Paragraphs 2 and 3]: "The other collected soil from each composite sample was air-dried for further physicochemical analysis. All detected methods followed standardized protocols outlined in Qiao et al. (2019). DNA extraction was made from 0.20 g of frozen rhizosphere soil and the chloroplast blocker primers were used. Then the quality and concentration of DNA were tested. " The original version of this article has been updated. Text correction 3 Adding/removing text [There were some professional error in the PCR reaction mixture ]. A correction has been made to the section [2 Materials and methods, 2.3 PCR amplification and 16S rRNA gene sequencing, Paragraphs 1 and 2]: "The bacterial 16S rRNA gene was amplified using the universal premes 341F (5'- ACTCCTACGGGAGGCAGCAG-3') and 806R (5'- GGACTACHVGGGTWTCTAAT-3') (Klindworth et al., 2013). Each 25 μL PCR reaction mixture contained 0.15 U μL-1 Taq polymerase, 450 μM dNTPs, 15 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 100 mM KCl, and 3 mM MgCl2, 0.8 μL (10.5 μM), 1.0 μL of template DNA, and nuclease-free water 9.9 μL. Purified amplicons were sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq platform. The sequencing data were uploaded to NCBI with the BioProject number PRJNA1271970. " The original version of this article has been updated. Text correction 4 Adding/removing text [There were some basic error in the Bioinformatics and data statistical analysis]. A correction has been made to the section [2 Materials and methods, 2.4 Bioinformatics and data statistical analysis, Paragraphs 2 and 3]: "Depending on the experimental design, ANOVA after checking the homoscedasticity or independent sample t-tests were used to evaluate treatment effects, with the significance P < 0.05. An ASV-based analysis was applied to calculate the alpha diversity of the bacterial community richness (Chao index) and diversity (Shannon index). PCoA were applied to visualize bacterial community structure differences across fertilization treatments. The significant differences in microbial community composition was determined by PERMANOVA in R (version 4.5.1). Linear analysis was conducted to identify significantly different taxa between treatments. Spearman's rank correlation assessed associations between ASV abundance and agronomic traits such as rice yield. The Mantel test examined relationships between bacterial community dissimilarities and soil physicochemical variables. "
