There's tons of types of bacteria and tons of types of plants. not all bacteria help plants (in fact, many bacteria hurt plants), and not all plants can be helped by bacteria. it would be almost impossible to list every bacteria that helps plants, but one example would be the denytrifying bacteria that live on the roots of most legumes (plants such as peas, beans, and peanuts). these bacteria convert nitrogen from the soil (that gets into the soil when animal carcases rot or when lightning strikes the ground). Legumes can't use pure nitrogen. these bacteria combine it with oxygen and make it NO2 or NO3, which are both forms of nitrogen that plants can use.
once the plant is done using the NO2 or NO3, different types of bacteria (called denitrifying bacteria) will convert the NO2 and NO3 back to pure nitrogen and put it back into the atmosphere where it can be used by other organisms.
these are just two of the millions of types of bacteria in God's creation, but they are extremely helpfull to plants.
