Plant phosphorus‐use and‐acquisition strategies in Amazonia
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 …

Multiple phosphorus acquisition strategies adopted by fine roots in low-fertility soils in Central Amazonia
Abstract Background and aims Ancient Amazon soils are characterised by low
concentrations of soil phosphorus (P). Therefore, it is hypothesised that plants may invest a …

Phosphorus management for perennial crops in central Amazonian upland soils
J Lehmann, MS Cravo, JL Vasconselos de Macêdo… - Plant and Soil, 2001 - Springer
The present contribution discusses the soil P status of central Amazonian upland soils, the
effects of tree crops on soil P availability and the factors controlling soil P cycling in land use …

Amazon forest response to CO2 fertilization dependent on plant phosphorus acquisition
Global terrestrial models currently predict that the Amazon rainforest will continue to act as a
carbon sink in the future, primarily owing to the rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) …

Seedling growth responses to phosphorus reflect adult distribution patterns of tropical trees
Soils influence tropical forest composition at regional scales. In Panama, data on tree
communities and underlying soils indicate that species frequently show distributional …

Nutrient acquisition, soil phosphorus partitioning and competition among trees in a lowland tropical rain forest
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 …

Mycorrhizal fungi and phosphatase involvement in rhizosphere phosphorus transformations improves plant nutrition during subtropical forest succession
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 …

Nutrient availability in tropical rain forests: the paradigm of phosphorus limitation
A long-standing paradigm in tropical ecology is that phosphorus (P) availability limits the
productivity of most lowland forests, with the largest pool of plant-available P resident in …
