    The authors give a characterization (in the terms of Brown-Halmos type operator identity) of the Toeplitz operators with pluriharmonic symbols that act on the analytic function spaces \(H_m(\mathbb{B})\), \(m \in \mathbb{N}\), with reproducing kernel\(K_m(z,w)=(1- \langle z,w\rangle)^{-m}\) on the unit ball \(\mathbb{B} \subset \mathbb{C}^n\). Note that, for \(m=1\), \(H_1(\mathbb{B})\) is the Drury-Arveson space; for \(m=n\), \(H_n(\mathbb{B})\) is the Hardy space; and for \(m>n+1\), \(H_m(\mathbb{B})\) is the standard weighted Bergman space. The main result of the paper states that an operator \(T \in L(H_m(\mathbb{B}))\) is a Toeplitz operator with pluriharmonic symbol if and only if it satisfies the condition \[{M'}^*_z T M'_z = P_{\Im M^*_z}\left(\oplus \sum_{k=0}^{m-1} (-1)^k \binom{m}{k+1} \sigma*k_{M_z}(T)\right)P_{\Im M^*_z},\] where \(M^*_z\) is the adjoint of the row multiplication \(M_z : H_m(\mathbb{B})^n \rightarrow H_m(\mathbb{B})\), \((g_i) \mapsto \sum_{i=1}^n z_i g_i\), \(M'_z\) is the Cauchy dual for \(M_z\),and the operator \(\sigma_{M_z}\) acts as \(\sigma_{M_z}(T)= \sum_{i=1}^n M_{z_i}TM^*_{z_i}\). The authors prove as well that an operator \(T \in L(H_m(\mathbb{B}))\) is a Toeplitz operator with pluriharmonic symbol \(f\) if and only if its Berezin transform \(\tilde{T} : \mathbb{B} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}\) is plurisubharmonic, and in this case \(f = \tilde{T}\).
