Phosphate rock utilization by soybean genotypes on a low-P savanna soil and the status of soil P fractions after a subsequent maize crop por Nwoke, O.C., Okogun, J.A., Sanginga, Nteranya, Diels, J., Abaidoo, Robert C., Osonubi, O.

“…The efficiency of the genotypes to acquire and utilize fertilizer or soil P differed significantly, and their ranking depended on how efficiency is defined. Shortly after application, 90-PR and 30-SSP resulted in similar increases in available P but the effects of 90-PR on the Ca-bound pool were significantly higher than those of 30-SSP. …”
