Phytate (myo-inositol hexakisphosphate salts) can constitute a large fraction of the organic P
in soils. As a more recalcitrant form of soil organic P, up to 51 million metric tons of phytate …

The increasing demand for food has increased dependence on chemical fertilizers that
promote rapid growth and yield as well as produce toxicity and negatively affect nutritional …

Plants respond to their external environment to optimize their nutrition and production
potential to minimize the food security issues and support sustainable agriculture system …

Phosphate (P) fixation to the soil solid phase is considered to be important for P availability
and is often attributed to the strong binding of orthophosphate anion species. However, the …

Phytases belong to the class of phosphohydrolases that begin the step-wise hydrolysis of
phosphates from phytates. Phytates are a derivative of myo-inositol, which is the primary …

Using agricultural wastes as an alternative phosphorus (P) source has great prospects to
improve soil P status. A 70-day incubation experiment was carried out to investigate the …

myo‐Inositol hexakisphosphate (phytate) is widely regarded as an abundant form of soil
organic phosphorus (P) in many soils. Its abundance is believed to be because of its …

Phytate, the major organic phosphorus in soil, is not readily available to plants as a source
of phosphorus (P). It is either complexed with cations or adsorbed to various soil …

Phosphorus (P) is one of the major constituents in energy metabolism and biosynthesis of
nucleic acids and cell membranes with an important role in regulation of a number of …

Phosphorus (P) is one of the most limiting macronutrients for crop productivity and P
deficiency is a common phenomenon in agricultural soils worldwide. Despite long-term …
