A Higgs boson produced in association with one or more bottom quarks is of great theoretical and experimental interest to the high-energy community. A precise prediction of its total and differential cross section can have a great impact on the discovery of a Higgs boson with large bottom-quark Yukawa coupling, like the scalar (h{sup 0} and H{sup 0}) and pseudoscalar (A{sup 0}) Higgs bosons of the minimal supersymmetric standard model in the region of large tan{beta}. In this paper we apply the threshold resummation formalism to determine both differential and total cross sections for bg{yields}b{phi} (where {phi}=h{sup 0},H{sup 0}), including up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order soft plus virtual QCD corrections at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. We present results for both the Fermilab Tevatron and the CERN Large Hadron Collider.
