SUMMARY Effect of inoculation with Gloms fasciculatus, Beijerinckia mobilis and Aspergillus niger , singly and in combination, on growth and nitrogen and phosphorus content of onion was studied. Inoculation with G. fasciculatus or B. mobilis increased the dry wt and nitrogen content of the plant. A. niger inoculation had no significant influence on plant growth. B. mobilis inoculation stimulated the sporulation by VA mycorrhizas. Synergistic beneficial effect due to inoculation with all the three organisms was observed.
