Phosphorus (P) is an essential element for plant growth and is abundant in most soils.
However, most P in soil is mainly stored as insoluble phosphate (IP) forms. IPs are …

Phosphorus (P) has been essential to the growth of crops, and hence global food supply.
However, ecosystem biological productivity often suffers from P deficiency. Meanwhile …

Phosphorus (P) availability in soil is often limited, posing a challenge for sustainable
agricultural production. Phosphate solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs) have emerged as a …

Phosphorus (P) is the second most essential macronutrient required by plants for their
growth and development after nitrogen. The availability of P in soil–plant systems can be a …

Phosphorus (P), an essential macronutrient for all life on Earth, has been shown to be a vital
limiting nutrient element for plant growth and yield. P deficiency is a common phenomenon …

Background Increasing crop production to feed a growing population has driven the use of
mineral fertilizers to ensure nutrients availability and fertility of agricultural soils. After …

Phosphorus (P) is a limiting nutrient in the soil-plant nutrient cycling. Although the
exogenous application of chemical P fertilizers can satisfy crop P requirements during …

The use of excess conventional Phosphorus (P) fertilizers to improve agricultural
productivity, in order to meet constantly increasing global food demand, potentially causes …

Phosphorus (P) is a macronutrient that plants need to grow. However, most of the soil's
phosphorus is still insoluble, making it difficult for plants to absorb. This creates a barrier to …

Crop production and food security will be challenged by the availability of phosphate rock
and its derived phosphorus (P) fertilizers in the coming decades. Croplands around the …
