Book Description
This seminal work from 1936 explores the role of phosphorus in the soil and its importance for plant growth. Wolf's research helped establish the importance of organic forms of phosphorus, which can be more easily accessed by plants than inorganic forms. His work continues to influence the field of soil science today. This edition includes a new foreword on the history of agricultural research and its impact on modern farming practices. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations. Within the United States, you may freely copy and distribute this work, as no entity (individual or corporate) has a copyright on the body of the work.

Phosphorus in Action
Author: Else K. BünemannPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642152716
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 485
Book Description
Phosphorus (P) is a finite resource which is essential for life. It is a limiting nutrient in many ecosystems but also a pollutant which can affect biodiversity in terrestrial ecosystems and change the ecology of water bodies. This book collects the latest information on biological processes in soil P cycling, which to date have remained much less understood than physico-chemical processes. The methods section presents spectroscopic techniques and the characterization of microbial P forms, as well as the use of tracers, molecular approaches and modeling of soil-plant systems. The section on processes deals with mycorrhizal symbioses, microbial P solubilization, soil macrofauna, phosphatase enzymes and rhizosphere processes. On the system level, P cycling is examined for grasslands, arctic and alpine soils, forest plantations, tropical forests, and dryland regions. Further, P management with respect to animal production and cropping, and the interactions between global change and P cycling, are treated.
