Abstract: Mycorrhizal fungi plays an important role in soil micro biota and certain soil microorganisms are known to regulate mycorrhizal formation and function.Conversely, mycorrhizae affect the establishment of rhizosphere populations.Several interactions between mycorrhizae and soil microorganisms involves in nutrient cycling, hence having an impact on plant growth and nutrition.In the present study, similar findings have been recorded.An increased 'p' uptake was seen in the plants inoculated with VAM and Bacillus polymyxa.This might be due to the enhanced utility of sparingly soluble form of 'p' in the soil.The present investigation showed that the combined inoculation of VAM, Azospirillum and Bacillus polymyxa in selected foxtail millet SiA-326 variety is more advantageous in obtaining maximum growth and yield.Hence, an overall enhancement of growth and yield is observed when plants were inoculated with the combination of VAM, Azospirillum and Bacillus polymyxa.
