Phosphorus Dynamics: From Soil to Plant

TL;DR: In this paper, a review on soil salinization and its effect on P availability, the mechanisms of P solubilization by Salinity-tolerant phosphate-solubilizing-bacteria (ST-PSB), their role in alleviating salinity stress in plants, the current and future scenarios of their use, and the potential application of this knowledge to manage the sustainable environmental system.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify new research perspectives in agronomy and emerging strategies to improve the P availability in cropping systems and explore the following: (1) the use of renewable waste-derived P resources (including crop residues, excreta, struvite, and biochar) to improve P availability, particularly the impacts of applications of such renewable P sources on the chemical properties of the soil, soil organic matter dynamics, soil microbial and rhizospheric activity, and, ultimately, P availability; (2) the effects of multispecies cropping

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compile and summarize available findings on the beneficial effects of P solubilizing bacteria (PSB) on crop production with a focus on crop P acquisition via root system responses at the structural, functional and transcriptional levels.

TL;DR: The positive influence of Actinobacteria on soil fertility and plant health has motivated us to compile a review of important findings associated with sustaining plant productivity in the long run as mentioned in this paper .

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the relationship between Mineral Nutrition and Plant Diseases and Pests, and the Soil-Root Interface (Rhizosphere) in Relation to Mineral Nutrition.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors put forward the case for including long-term phosphorus scarcity on the priority agenda for global food security, and presented opportunities for recovering phosphorus and reducing demand together with institutional challenges.

TL;DR: Physiological, biochemical, and molecular studies of white lupin and other species response to P-deficiency have identified targets that may be useful for plant improvement, and Genomic approaches involving identification of expressed sequence tags found under low-P stress may also yield target sites for plant improved.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give an overview of those chemical processes that are directly induced by plant roots and which can affect the concentration of P in the soil solution and, ultimately, the bioavailability of soil inorganic P to plants.
