The inositol phosphates are a group of organic phosphorus compounds found widely in the
natural environment, but that represent the greatest gap in our understanding of the global …

Phosphorus losses from agricultural soil to water bodies are mainly related to the excessive
accumulation of available P in soil as a result of long‐term inputs of fertilizer P. Since P is a …

Organic phosphorus is an important component of soil biogeochemical cycles, but must be
extracted from soil prior to analysis. Here we critically review the extraction of soil organic …

Information on the chemical forms of organic phosphorus (P) in soil waters is fundamental to
understanding the dynamics of soil organic P and its potential for transfer from soils to …

Organic phosphorus is involved in almost every biological process. Organic forms of
phosphorus often dominate in soils and aquatic systems and many organisms possess …

Extracts were prepared from soil using water, 50 mM citric acid (pH∼ 2.3) or 0.5 M NaHCO 3
(pH 8.5), and were incubated with excess phytase from Aspergillus niger to determine the …

The mineralization of soil organic phosphorus (P) is catalysed by extracellular phosphatases
that hydrolyse different non-phytate phosphomonoesters (eg, sugar phosphates and …

This paper specifically focuses on the importance of organic phosphorus as a source of
phosphorus for plant nutrition. In particular, the importance of rhizosphere phosphatase …

This paper reviews the abiotic processes that could lead to the stabilization of organic
phosphorus in soils and the aquatic environment. The role of adsorption to soil minerals …

Organic fertilizers are important in agroecosystems, but the fate of specific forms of added
phosphorus (P) in the long-term is not well understood. We studied the effects of 62 years of …
