The acquisition of phosphorus byLupinus albus L.

Abstract: Large quantities of citrate ions have been shown to be secreted by the roots of Lupinus albus. It is postulated that these react in the soil to form ferric hydroxy phosphate polymers which diffuse to the root surface where they are degraded by the action of reducing agents in the presence of an Fe II uptake mechanism balanced by hydrogen ion secretion. Some known chemical behaviour of Fe III and citrate which supports this postulate is reviewed. Evidence is also presented which suggests that much of the Fe abs… Show more

“…To increase root surface area, the diameter of main roots is decreased and the number of root hairs is increased [10]. Proteaceae and lupin plants develop bottle-brush like clustered roots, known as 'cluster roots' or 'proteoid roots', under P deficient conditions [3,[11][12][13]. The function of these roots is not only to increase root surface area, but also to stimulate vigorous inorganic phosphate liberation from unavailable forms by secretion of APase and organic acids, and overexpression of Pi transporters [7,14,15].…”

“…One of these non-mycorrhizal, cluster-root producing plants, is white lupin (Lupinus albus (L.)). White lupin's ability to grow on soils where P is present in sparingly soluble forms has been studied intensively for the last 20 years (Gardner et al 1982(Gardner et al , 1983Neumann et al 1999;Shane et al 2003;Shen et al 2005;Weisskopf et al 2005Weisskopf et al , 2006a. Furthermore, as a leguminous plant, white lupin has the ability to enrich the soil in nitrogen (N) through symbiotic fixation.…”
