Phosphorus (P) availability is a limiting factor for plant growth in tropical and subtropical
regions, but many tropical and subtropical forests maintain high levels of productivity and …

Phosphorus (P) is an essential but limited nutrient in highly weathered subtropical or tropical
forest soils; however, increased P demands owing to elevated nitrogen (N) deposition might …

Partitioning of soil phosphorus (P) pools has been proposed as a key mechanism
maintaining plant diversity, but experimental support is lacking. Here, we provided different …

Globally, phosphorus (P) limits productivity of trees in many forests and plantations
especially in highly weathered, acidic or calcareous profiles. Most trees form mycorrhizal …

Abstract Background and Aims Phosphorus (P) is commonly one of most limiting nutrients in
tropical and subtropical forests, but whether P limitation would be exacerbated during forest …

In the tropical rainforest of Amazonia, phosphorus (P) is one of the main nutrients controlling
forest dynamics, but its effects on the future of the forest biomass carbon (C) storage under …

Introduction Phosphorus (P) is often the first or second element limiting aboveground net
primary productivity of forests. Besides low available inorganic orthophosphate (Pi) …

We hypothesized that tropical plant species with different mycorrhizal associations reduce
competition for soil phosphorus (P) by specializing to exploit different soil organic P …

We hypothesized that dinitrogen (N2)‐and non‐N2‐fixing tropical trees would have distinct
phosphorus (P) acquisition strategies allowing them to exploit different P sources, reducing …

Quantifying soil P fractions is essential for understanding soil P cycling because these
fractions are potential sources of bioavailable P. Here, we investigated whether soil P …
