With the intensification of agricultural production in many European countries, more
marginal soils with elevated organic matter (OM) content are being brought into cultivation …

The purpose of this study was to evaluate how the different phosphorus fractions in soils
contribute to plant uptake, based on the combination between the sequential P fractionation …

Abstract Characterization of phosphorus (P) in soils is important both agronomically and
environmentally, although the outcome may depend on the technique applied …

This paper describes the effects of chemical fertiliser and pig manure application on the
phosphorus (P) balance and changes of soil organic P (Po) fractions in a Mollisol following …

A proportion of dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) in soil leachates is readily available for
uptake by aquatic organisms and, therefore, can represent a hazard to surface water quality …

Organic farming systems often show negative nutrient balances that may compromise the
availability of phosphorus over the mid-term. Calcareous soils with low organic matter …

Understanding the role of organic matter in increasing phosphorus (P) bioavailability may
lead to the development of cropping systems that can increase the efficiency of soil P use …

The mineralization of organic forms of phosphorus (P) in soil contributes significantly to plant
P uptake, although quantification of organic P mineralisation has been impeded by …

Background Phosphorus (P) fertilizer is usually applied in excess of plant requirement and
accumulates in soils due to its strong adsorption, rapid precipitation and immobilisation into …

Grasslands are a globally important use of land for food and fibre production, which often
require the addition of phosphorus (P) fertiliser to maximise plant production. However, a …
