To understand whether genotypic variation in acid phosphatase (APase) activity in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) induced by phosphorus (P) deficiency has impact on P efficiency, soil APase activity in the rhizosphere for rapeseed P-efficient genotype 102 and P-inefficient genotype 105 was measured against organic and inorganic P sources in the pot experiment, and the activities of root-secreted APase and leaf intracellular APase were investigated in different P-starvation periods in the nutrient solution. Higher activity of root-secreted APase in B. napus was induced under low P conditions. However, P nutrition and P uptake efficiency of the plants supplied with organic P were not directly related to the activity of root-secreted APase due to several confounding factors affecting APase availability. The higher activity of leaf APase improved P remobilization in plants and played important roles in enhancing P use efficiency, shown by the significant correlation between leaf APase activity and P use efficiency in a rapeseed recombinant inbred population of 135 lines.

Organic phosphorus (Po) mineralization hydrolyzed by alkaline phosphatase (APase) can replenish bioavailable P load in the sediment water ecosystem of lakes. However, the understanding about the interaction between P load and bacteria community encoding APase generation in the sediment are still limited. Different P pools in the sediments from Taihu Lake, China were measured using sequential extraction procedure.

Legume crops establish symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing rhizobia for biological nitrogen fixation (BNF), a process that provides a prominent natural nitrogen source in agroecosystems; and efficient nodulation and nitrogen fixation processes require a large amount of phosphorus (P). Here, a role of GmPAP4, a nodule-localized purple acid phosphatase, in BNF and seed yield was functionally characterized in whole transgenic soybean () plants under a P-limited condition. was specifically expressed in the infection zones of soybean nodules and its expression was greatly induced in low P stress.

The occurrence of different degrees of phosphorus deficiency in the vast majority of cultivation regions worldwide is common. There is a pressing need within the cultivated industry to identify appropriate exogenous substances that can enhance the uptake of phosphorus and improve both the yield and quality of the taproots of . This study was conducted to investigate the fine root and taproot morphology, physiological characteristics, and secondary metabolite accumulation in response to the supply of varying concentrations of LaCl to , to determine the optimal concentration of LaCl that can effectively enhance the yield and quality of 's taproots, while also alleviating its reliance on soil phosphate fertilizer.
