A sand-culture experiment was carried out in a growth chamber to investigate the phosphorus (P) efficiencies of 8 barley cultivars that are parents of 4 mapping populations, and the effects of P nutrition on plant uptake of zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), and manganese (Mn). Two sources of phosphate were used, rock phosphate (sparingly soluble) and CaHPO4 (readily available). There were significant differences in P uptake and utilisation efficiencies between the 8 cultivars. Among the cultivars, the Sahara–Clipper pair is of the most interest, because these 2 cultivars had large differences in root/shoot ratios, P allocation between root and shoot, and P uptake/utilisation efficiencies. Higher P availability significantly reduced plant Zn uptake and tissue concentrations in all cultivars. Shoot Zn concentrations were found to decrease significantly with P influx to the xylem (P < 0.01), indicating that genotypic variations in P translocation from roots to shoots may interact with Zn accumulation in shoots. Higher P availability reduced Cu concentrations in shoots, probably due to a dilution effect. P availability (rock phosphate v. CaHPO4) seemed to affect plant uptake of Mn in some cultivars, but further study is needed to elucidate the mechanisms involved and the practical implications of this interaction in Mn-deficient soils.

Sandy soil has limitations factor in supporting plant growth such as low soil organic carbon (SOC), cation exchange capacity (CEC), macro-micro nutrient content, water retention capacity, and high permeability rate. To improve soil conditions, it can be done by adding mycorrhizae and soil amendments. This study aimed to determine the effect of mycorrhizae application and soil amendments on the P availability and P uptake of plants in sandy soil. The research was conducted in a greenhouse of Agricultural Faculty, Sebelas Maret University. Used a completely randomized design consisting of 2 factors. The first factor was mycorrhizae with 2 levels, namely without mycorrhizae (M0) and mycorrhizae with 6 spores/plants (M1). The second factor was soil amendments; without amendment (P0), cow manure 60 tons/ha (P1), rock phosphate 150 kg/ha (P2), and combination of cow manure 60 tons/ha and rock phosphate 150 kg/ha (P3). The results showed that the application of mycorrhizae and soil amendments significantly increased available P, SOC, CEC, P concentration, and P uptake. Interaction of mycorrhizae 6 spores/plant and rock phosphate 150 kg/ha was able to increase the availability of soil P up to 12.8 times, plant tissue P concentration up to 1.4 times, and P uptake up to 2.27 times compared to the control. Application of mycorrhizae 6 spores/plant and cow manure of 60 tons/ha gave the best results on SOC and mycorrhizae with a combination of cow manure and rock phosphate gave the best results on CEC.

Citrate Efflux

Limited phosphorus (P) availability in Australia's highly weathered soils may constrain an increase in terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP) with the globally increasing atmospheric CO 2 concentration. We examined whether an Australian temperate pasture grass (Danthonia richardsonii) grown in sand culture and supplied solely with virtually insoluble Al- and Fe-phosphate was able to increase C-gain when exposed to elevated (731 µmol mol −1 ) compared with ambient (379 µmol mol −1 ) CO 2 concentrations. When supplied with 8 mg kg −1 insoluble P concentration, total citrate efflux by root systems (µmol h −1 ), plant P uptake, shoot photosynthesis rates and plant mass were all significantly greater at elevated than at ambient CO 2 after a growth period of between 55 and 63 days. In this treatment, although the P concentration of the rooting medium limited growth at ambient CO 2 , elevated CO 2 increased P-uptake from the non-labile source, increased photosynthesis rates per unit shoot soluble-P and increased plant mass. At P concentrations lower than 8 mg kg −1 , plant mass, specific citrate efflux and maximum leaf carboxylation rates were limited by the amount of P available in the rooting medium and no CO 2 effect was observed. In all treatments, carbon supply did not appear to limit citrate efflux. Where an increase in P uptake at elevated CO 2 was achieved, it was due to an increase in root mass (indicative of a potentially larger soil volume explored) rather than to increased specific rates of citrate efflux. Above 8 mg kg −1 , the supplied P concentration was sufficient that minimal rates of specific citrate efflux alone solubilised enough P for growth and a strong CO 2 effect on plant mass, photosynthesis and P uptake was observed.

Phosphorus (P) is an important macronutrient for all lives, but it is also a finite resource. Therefore, it is important to understand how to increase the P availability and plant uptake. The endophytes can help host plants to improve P uptake and will be apparently affected by plant genotypes. To investigate the mechanism of root endophytes in promoting P uptake of peach rootstocks, we analyzed the variations of the root endophytic fungal and bacterial communities of peach rootstocks with different P efficiencies under high or low level of P addition. Results showed that Proteobacteria was the dominant bacterial phylum in the roots of all rootstocks under the two levels of P addition. At low P level, the abundance of Actinoplanes in phosphorus-inefficiency root system was apparently higher than that at high P level. Actinoplanes produced important secondary metabolites, improving the stress resistance of plants. Under high P condition, the abundance of Ferrovibrio was higher in Qing Zhou Mi Tao than in Du Shi. Fe oxides considerably reduced the availability of applied P, which partially explained why the P utilization in Qing Zhou Mi Tao is inefficient. Further, Ascomycota was the dominant fungal phylum in the roots of all rootstocks under different levels of P addition. The fungi community of roots varied in different rootstocks at each P level, but was similar for the same rootstock at different P levels, which indicated that genotype had a greater effect than P addition on the fungal community of peach rootstocks.

Biochar Amendment

AbstractAs one of the most important nutrients for plant growth, phosphorus was often poorly available in soil. While biochar addition induced improvement of soil structure, nutrient and water retention as well as microbial activity had been well known, and the effect of biochar soil amendment (BSA) on soil phosphorus availability and plant P uptake had been not yet quantitatively assessed. In a review study, data were retrieved from 354 peer-reviewed research articles on soil available P content and P uptake under BSA published by February 2019. Then a database was established of 516 data pairs from 86 studies with and without BSA in agricultural soils. Subsequently, the effect size of biochar application was quantified relative to no application and assessed in terms of biochar conditions, soil conditions, as well as experiment conditions. In grand mean, there was a significant and great effect of BSA on soil available P and plant P uptake by 65% and 55%, respectively. The effects were generally significant under manure biochar, biochar pyrolyzed under 300 °C, soil pH <5 and fine-textured soil, and soils that are very low in available P. Being significantly correlated to soil P availability (R2=0.29), plant P uptake was mostly enhanced with vegetable crops of high biomass yield. Overall, biochar amendment at a dosage up to 10 t ha−1 could be a tool to enhance soil availability and plant uptake of phosphorus, particularly in acid, heavy textured P-poor soils.

Abstract Aims Phosphorus (P) availability and efficiency are especially important for plant growth and productivity. However, the sex-specific P acquisition and utilization strategies of dioecious plant species under different N forms are not clear. Methods This study investigated the responsive mechanisms of dioecious Populus cathayana females and males based on P uptake and allocation to soil P supply under N deficiency, nitrate (NO3 −) and ammonium (NH4 +) supply. Important Findings Females had a greater biomass, root length density (RLD), specific root length (SRL) and shoot P concentration than males under normal P availability with two N supplies. NH4 + supply led to higher total root length, RLD and SRL but lower root tip number than NO3 − supply under normal P supply. Under P deficiency, males showed a smaller root system but greater photosynthetic P availability and higher leaf P remobilization, exhibiting a better capacity to adaptation to P-deficiency than females. Under P deficiency, NO3 − supply increased leaf photosynthesis and PUE but reduced RLD and SRL in females while males had higher leaf P redistribution and photosynthetic PUE than NH4 + supply. Females had a better potentiality to cope with P deficiency under NO3 − supply than NH4 + supply; the contrary was true for males. These results suggest that females may devote to increase in P uptake and shoot P allocation under normal P availability, especially under NO3 − supply, while males adopt more efficient resource use and P remobilization to maximum their tolerance to P-deficiency.

P Limitation

Abstract. In old and heavily weathered soils, the availability of P might be so small that the primary production of plants is limited. However, plants have evolved several mechanisms to actively take up P from the soil or mine it to overcome this limitation. These mechanisms involve the active uptake of P mediated by mycorrhiza, biotic de-occlusion through root clusters, and the biotic enhancement of weathering through root exudation. The objective of this paper is to investigate how and where these processes contribute to alleviate P limitation on primary productivity. To do so, we propose a process-based model accounting for the major processes of the carbon, water, and P cycles including chemical weathering at the global scale. Implementing P limitation on biomass synthesis allows the assessment of the efficiencies of biomass production across different ecosystems. We use simulation experiments to assess the relative importance of the different uptake mechanisms to alleviate P limitation on biomass production. We find that active P uptake is an essential mechanism for sustaining P availability on long timescales, whereas biotic de-occlusion might serve as a buffer on timescales shorter than 10 000 yr. Although active P uptake is essential for reducing P losses by leaching, humid lowland soils reach P limitation after around 100 000 yr of soil evolution. Given the generalized modelling framework, our model results compare reasonably with observed or independently estimated patterns and ranges of P concentrations in soils and vegetation. Furthermore, our simulations suggest that P limitation might be an important driver of biomass production efficiency (the fraction of the gross primary productivity used for biomass growth), and that vegetation on old soils has a smaller biomass production rate when P becomes limiting. With this study, we provide a theoretical basis for investigating the responses of terrestrial ecosystems to P availability linking geological and ecological timescales under different environmental settings.

Crops in general make poor use of phosphorous fertilizer and, as a result, recommended rates and production costs are very high. Phosphorus can be made more readily available to plants by proper management of phosphate fertilization, selecting both, type of fertilizer and application method. This study was carried out to evaluate the efficiency of the natural Gafsa rock phosphate and the triple superphosphate on dry matter production and P uptake by corn plants cultivated in a greenhouse. Fertilizers were applied localized and broadcast/incorporated on to two soils with contrasting phosphorus capacity factors (PCF). Rock phosphate broadcast application was as efficient as triple superphosphate in increasing corn plant dry matter in the Tropudult, with lower PCF. This effect was not observed on the Haplustox, owing to the lower P solubility due to the higher Ca concentration in this soil. Triple superphosphate rates increased plant P uptake in both soils and for both application forms. Rock phosphate resulted in higher P-content in plants, but only for broadcast application on the Ultisol.

The limited availability of phosphorus (P) in soils causes a major constraint in the productivity of potatoes, which requires increased knowledge of plant adaptation responses in this condition. In this study, six potato cultivars, namely, Agria, Lady Claire, Milva, Lilly, Sieglinde, and Verdi, were assessed for their responses on plant growth, leaf physiology, P use efficiency (PUE), and tuber quality with three P levels (Plow, Pmed, and Phigh). The results reveal a significant variation in the cultivars in response to different P availabilities. P-efficient cultivars, Agria, Milva, and Lilly, possessed substantial plant biomass, tuber yield, and high P uptake efficiency (PUpE) under low P supply conditions. The P-inefficient cultivars, Lady Claire, Sieglinde, and Verdi, could not produce tubers under P deprivation conditions, as well as the ability to efficiently uptake P under low-level conditions, but they were efficient in P uptake under high soil P conditions. Improved PUpE is important for plant tolerance with limited P availability, which results in the efficient use of the applied P. At the leaf level, increased accumulations of nitrate, sulfate, sucrose, and proline are necessary for a plant to acclimate to P deficiency-induced stress and to mobilize leaf inorganic phosphate to increase internal PUE and photosynthesis. The reduction in plant biomass and tuber yield under P-deficient conditions could be caused by reduced CO2 assimilation. Furthermore, P deficiency significantly reduced tuber yield, dry matter, and starch concentration in Agria, Milva, and Lilly. However, contents of tuber protein, sugars, and minerals, as well as antioxidant capacity, were enhanced under these conditions in these cultivars. These results highlight the important traits contributing to potato plant tolerance under P-deficient conditions and indicate an opportunity to improve the P efficiency and tuber quality of potatoes under deficient conditions using more efficient cultivars. Future research to evaluate molecular mechanisms related to P and sucrose translocation, and minimize tuber yield reduction under limited P availability conditions is necessary.
