Unraveling the association between microbiome and plant phenotype can illustrate the effect of microbiome on host and then guide the agriculture management. Adequate identification of species and appropriate choice of models are two challenges in microbiome data analysis. Computational models of microbiome data could help in association analysis between the microbiome and plant host. The deep learning methods have been widely used to learn the microbiome data due to their powerful strength of handling the complex, sparse, noisy, and high-dimensional data. Here, we review the analytic strategies in the microbiome data analysis and describe the applications of deep learning models for plant-microbiome correlation studies. We also introduce the application cases of different models in plant-microbiome correlation analysis and discuss how to adapt the models on the critical steps in data processing. From the aspect of data processing manner, model structure, and operating principle, most deep learning models are suitable for the plant microbiome data analysis. The ability of feature representation and pattern recognition is the advantage of deep learning methods in modeling and interpretation for association analysis. Based on published computational experiments, the convolutional neural network and graph neural networks could be recommended for plant microbiome analysis
