Phosphorus is an important plant nutrient which is in short supply in many agricultural soils.
Because much of the soluble phosphate (P) applied to soils as fertilizer is “fixed” by the soil …

The incorporation of organic matter (OM) in soils that are able to rapidly sorb applied
phosphorus (P) fertiliser reportedly increases P availability to plants. This effect has …

The ecological activities of plant phenolics are diverse and highly variable. Although some
variation is attributable to differences in concentration, structure, and evolutionary history of …

With the current interest in reduced use of purchased inputs and efficient use of organic
residues in agroecosystems, there has been renewed interest on the use of organic …

Background Unveiling the diversity of plant strategies to acquire and use phosphorus (P) is
crucial to understand factors promoting their coexistence in hyperdiverse P-impoverished …

Background Carboxylate-releasing cluster roots of Proteaceae play a key role in acquiring
phosphorus (P) from ancient nutrient-impoverished soils in Australia. However, cluster roots …

Interaction between various species in natural systems may affect the adsorption of these
species and thereby their mobility and bioavailability. Recently an ion adsorption model has …

To mobilize sparingly available phosphorus (P) in the rhizosphere, many plant species
secrete malate to release P sorbed onto (hydr) oxides of aluminum and iron (Fe). In the …

Several plant species excrete di‐and tricarboxylic acids as a reaction to P and Fe deficiency.
Therefore, the effect of citric acid on P, Al, and Fe soil solution concentrations of three soils …

Phosphates are the dominant phosphorus (P) source on Earth. The phosphates govern
available P in soil, or even the complete ecosystem. The common deficiency of available P …
