Maize plants we're grown in sandy loam non- calcareous and sandy clay loam calcareous newly-reclaimed soils under natural green-house conditions. Plants were supplied with super-or rock-P fertilizer at 45, 70 & 100% of the full recommended dose, either bio-P-fertilized with (VA-mycorrhizal fungi plus P-dissolving bacteria) or non- inoculated, in presence or absence of organic manuring of sewage sludge compost (SSC). Obtained data reveal that soil available P content at different stages of plant development, dry matter content at vegetative and heading stages. stalk & grain yield /plant, grain quality as expressed by crude protein and oil content (%), nutritional status of grain (uptake of N, P.K. Fe, Mn, Zn & Cu) were positively affected by all treatments applied,
