Rhizobium, VAM and rock phosphate inoculation has a significant utilization in burgundy. The present study was conducted to study the influence of rock phosphorus fertilization, Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizae (VAM) and rhizobium inoculation on growth and yield parameters of burgundy (Macroptilum bracteatum). The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design during summer season at the Department of Botany University of Peshawar Pakistan. A composite soil sample was collected for analysis of soil for physical and chemical properties. Rock phosphorus fertilization, application along with VAM and rhizobium inoculation increased the growth parameters significantly. Inoculation under "P" deficient soil dual inoculation, Rhizobium and VAM resulted in an increase in grain yield respectively, over no inoculation in Macroptilum bracteatum. Maximum growth was observed where VAM along with rhizobium and rock phosphate inoculation were applied. It is concluded that burgundy should preferably be grown with dual inoculation of VAM along with rhizobium and rock phosphate.
