Phosphorus nutrition of rice in relation to flooding and temporary loss of soil-water saturation in two lowland soils of Cambodia
In the rainfed lowlands, temporary loss of soil-water saturation during crop growth is a common factor limiting rice (Oryza sativa L.) yield but its effects on phosphorus (P) availability are poorly understood...

The effects of metal ions on the root surface phosphatase activity of grasses differing in tolerance to serpentine soil
Six grass species which differed in ability to grow on serpentine soils were assayed for root surface acid phosphatase activity in solutions of Ca, Mg, Ni, Cr III, Cr VI, and Zn at various concentrations. The ...
