Greenhouse pot experiments were carried out to Know the effect of co-inoculation of AM Fungi on plant growth, acid and alkaline phosphatase activity in Capsicum annum L. Var. Pusa jwala. AM Fungal inoculated plants showed a significant increase in plant height, biomass, fruit yield and Phosphatase activity. The better improvement was observed by the inoculation of Rhizophagus fasciculatus with Glomus macrocarpum combination as compare to single strain and control one. However, the best improvement was recorded with the three AM Fungal inoculants with increased in biomass, P uptake and fruit yield of Capsicum annum L. Var. Pusa jwala.
