Abstract/Contents: | "Ryegrass plants were inoculated with Gigaspora margarita, Glomus tenuis or the indigenous mycorrhizal fungi and transplanted into pots containing four New Zealand hill country soils fertilized with finely ground superphosphate or one of five finely ground phosphate rocks. After seven harvests from Dunmore soil and four harvests from three other soils, Peru rock phosphate was the best fertilizer overall (an average of 24 % of applied fertilizer phosphate was recovered by plants) followed by superphosphate, Chatham Rise rock, Nauru Is. rock, Christ- mas Is. rock and Queensland rock (23, 15, 4, 4 and 2 % of the phosphate recovered respectively). The fertilizer value of superphosphate decreased rapidly over successive harvests in all soils, with slower decreases in the fertilizer value of Peru and Chatham rock phosphate. The values of Queensland, Nauru Is. and Christmas Is. rock phosphate were very low and largely un- affected by repeated harvesting. Mycorrhizal inoculation greatly influenced phosphate uptake from soil by plants. rn 11 out of 28 soil-fertilizer treatments, phosphate uptake by G. tenuis- inoculated plants was increased significantly over plants inoculated with indigenous mycorrhizal fungi. The increased phosphate uptake following inoculation with efficient mycorrhizal fungi tended to decrease over successive harvests, as the available phosphate levels in soil were depleted." |
