Temporal variations in phosphorus fractions and phosphatase activities in rhi…

Many studies have well reported nutrient deficiency and soil degradation focusing on soil N in pure plantations. However, few papers focused on soil P deficiency during pure plantation afforestation. We examined the variations in P fractions and phosphatase (P-ase) activities in the rhizosphere and bulk soils in Larix olgensis plantations of 16, 23, 34, and 49 y. Correlation analysis was ap…
