In order to improve the effectiveness of phosphate rock as phosphorus fertilizer, elemental sulfur and Thiobacillus have been evaluated as amendments. First, Thiobacillus was isolated from different soil samples. Then, a greenhouse pot experiment was conducted using a completely randomized factorial design with three factors included: elemental sulfur at four levels of 0, 1000, 2000, and 5000 mg kg ⁻¹; phosphate rock at three levels of 0, 1000 and 2000 mg kg ⁻¹; four Thiobacillus inoculums (T ₁, T ₂, T ₃, T ₄) and without inoculation (T ₀) in three replications. Results showed that all the four Thiobacillus inoculums increased significantly extractable soil-P. Combined application of phosphate rock and sulfur in equal proportion (1:1) along with inoculum Thiobacillus had a significant effect in improving phosphorus availability in soil. Combined application of sulfur (at rates of 1000 and 2000 mg kg –¹) and Thiobacillus significantly increased phosphorus uptake by plants as compared to the control.
