The maxixe is a vegetable which has high nutritional value. Its origin was in the African continent and today is cultivated in various places of the world. In Brazil, it is usually cultivated by family farms, but most of it arises spontaneously and the fruits are harvested and consumed. The Northeast is the region that produces the most and consumes the fruit, the famous “maxixadas” became cultural in this region. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of the maxixeiro submitted to the inoculation of growth promoting microorganisms. The experiment was developed at the agricultural federal university of the Amazônia, Belém campus. The treatments were submitted to two bacteria (R96 and R46) and the fungus Trichoderma. The experimental design was completely randomized, with eight treatments and four replications. Biometric (stem length, leaf number, stem diameter), fruit quantity. After 90 days, the material was weighed to obtain wet mass data. After oven drying for 72h, a second weighing was done to obtain the dry mass data. The data obtained were submitted to analysis of variance and Tukey test at 5% probability and multivariate analysis. Plant growth promoting microorganisms (MPCP) were found to have no effect on the production of fruits, flowers and leaves of the maxixe culture.
