• Effects of Vegetation Restoration on Soil Phosphorus Fractions and Functional Genes in Alpine Semi-Humid Sandy Land (2026) · Agronomy · doi

  Further studies should investigate the effects of different restoration strategies and land-use changes on soil P cycling. Research should examine the relationships between soil P cycling, microbial communities, and ecosystem functioning in various environments. Studies should explore the potential applications of P-cycling genes and phosphatase activities in soil conservation and ecosystem management.

• Effects of Vegetation Restoration on Soil Phosphorus Fractions and Functional Genes in Alpine Semi-Humid Sandy Land (2026) · Agronomy · doi

  The study only examined the effects of vegetation restoration on soil phosphorus fractions and functional genes in alpine semi-humid sandy land. The study did not investigate the effects of other restoration strategies or land-use changes on soil P cycling. The study only considered a limited number of phosphatase activities and P-cycling genes.

• Soil carbon dynamics shape bacterial communities across grassland and agricultural soils with implications for phosphorus (2026) · Frontiers in Soil Science · doi

  Introduction Phosphorus (P) is a critical nutrient influencing soil fertility, yet its role in shaping bacterial community structure remains underexplored, particularly in native grasslands versus agricultural systems.

• Controlled-release phosphorus dynamics of urine-derived struvite for nutrient recovery and circular agriculture in tropical soils (2026) · Scientific Reports · doi

  Abstract Phosphorus recovery from human waste is a cornerstone of circular nutrient management, yet the behavior of recovered phosphorus minerals in highly weathered tropical soils remains poorly understood.

• Effects of Vegetation Restoration on Soil Phosphorus Fractions and Functional Genes in Alpine Semi-Humid Sandy Land (2026) · Agronomy · doi

  Although vegetation restoration is widely applied to reverse desertification in alpine sandy lands, its duration-dependent coordination of soil phosphorus (P) pools and biological P cycling remains unclear.
