Phosphorus (P), an essential macronutrient, plays a pivotal role in the growth and
development of plants. However, the limited availability of phosphorus in soil presents …

As an essential nutrient element, phosphorus (P) is primarily acquired and translocated as
inorganic phosphate (Pi) by plant roots. Pi is often sequestered in the soil and becomes …

In the context of a recent massive increase in research on plant root functions and their
impact on the environment, root ecologists currently face many important challenges to keep …

The importance of phosphorus in the regulation of plant growth function is well studied.
However, the role of the inorganic phosphate (Pi) molecule in the mitigation of abiotic …

To support an ever-increasing population, modern agriculture faces numerous challenges
that pose major threats to global food and energy security. Plant-associated microbes, with …

With the longevity of phosphorus reserves uncertain, distributing phosphorus to meet food
production needs is a global challenge. Here we match plant-available soil Olsen …

Broadacre (arable) crops generally require a relatively higher nutrient input toward yield
targets. The efficient use of nutrients in arable farmlands is very vital to this endeavor. It …

Due to limits in global phosphate rock reserves for fertilizer use, it is vital to increase
phosphorus fertilizer use efficiency (PFUE) to maintain agricultural productivity and food …

Plants need at least 13 different nutrients to maintain optimal growth. Nitrogen and
phosphorus, from the Greek 'phôs'(meaning 'light') and 'phoros'(meaning 'bearer'), are the …

Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is an essential macronutrient required for many fundamental
processes in plants, including photosynthesis and respiration, as well as nucleic acid …
