In the present study, an attempt was made to determine the effect of commercially available beneficial microbes as bioinoculants on growth enhancement of economically important fast growing indigenous tree species, Ailanthus excelsa in nursery. It was observed that dual application of bio-inoculants was found to be better than single inoculations indicating the synergistic effect. Further, dual combinations involving both Nitrogen fixer and Phosphorus solubilizer/mobilizer were found to be highly effective.Keywords
