Abstract/Contents:States that "the role of organic phosphorus in soil is generally overlooked, mainly because in cultivated mineral soils the greater part of the total phosphorus is in inorganic form." Describes analytical tehniques to determine the organic phosphorus content off soils. Also describes the organic phosphorus content of soils and organic phosphorus in relation to carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur in the organic matter. Mentions that "the chemical nature of about half the organic phosphorus in soils is unknown." Describes inositol phosphates, phospholipids, nucleic acids and their derivaties, and other phosphate esters. Lists the content and nature of organic phosphorus in soil solution and states that "the availability of the organic P compounds that are commonly found in soil has been demonstrated." Concludes that "accumulation of organic phosphorus in soil is primarily a result of microbial activity. However, little is known of the process involved in and the mechanisms of the incorporation of phosphorus in soil organic matter."
