“…They also concluded that L. eosentinii was more tolerant of low soil phosphate than other lupin species cultivated in Western Australia (L. cosentinii > L. luteus > L. angustifolius = L. albus). Similar findings were reported by Gladstones et al (1964) and by Keay, Biddiscombe and Ozanne (1970) who demonstrated L. cosentinii's strong ability to take up soil phosphate when compared with a range of non-lupin species.…”

SUMMARYLupinus angustifolius, L. cosentinii and L. luteus were weakly infected (<10% of root length) with vesicular-arbuscular endophytes and hence VA mycorrhizas were not considered of any value in their phosphorus uptake on the nutritionally poor sandy soils of Western Australia. Vesicles were present in approximately 30% of field plants and less often in the glasshouse. Arbuscules were observed on only one specimen of L. cosentinii in a restricted section of one lateral root. Infection was reduced further when soil moisture was high and by small additions of phosphorus to the soil. Under certain conditions, VA mycorrhizal infection in L. cosentinii was stimulated by the growth of red clover. 'Proteoid'-like rootlets were observed on lupins and these had specialized root-soil surface properties that may be responsible for improved phosphorus uptake.

“…It increased with supply, even when the yield response was saturated and P was being used with less efficiency. Similar decreases in the efficiency of P use as the supply increased have been noted by other workers (Keay et al 1970;White 1972;Awerbuch 1975;Christie & Moorby 1975).…”

White clover, red clover, suckling clover, and lotus were grown under a controlled environment in soil to which phosphorus had been added at levels of 50, 250, 600, and 2000 ppm w/w. Growth analysis was used to explain differences in yield in terms of attributes describing growth, P uptake, and assimilation. The yield of white clover, red clover, and lotus increased markedly with P supply. Suckling clover responded less to P and its yields were smaller than those of the other species except that of lotus at 50 ppm. In all species the rate ofP uptake per unit root length increased with P supply. There were differences in uptake rate among species but these could not be consistently related to differences in yield. The efficiency with which absorbed P was used in the production of dry matter declined as the P supply increased in all species. Lotus used P with the greatest efficiency. Root/shoot ratios and root length/weight ratios were affected by an increase in P supply. Suckling clover had the highest root/shoot ratios, and lotus had the lowest. Suckling clover also had high root length/weight ratios. For these legumes, attributes such as root/shoot ratio, root length/weight ratio, P concentration, and inherent size appear to be more useful than P uptake in explaining response to P.

“…In so-called inefficient strains there was a high level of mobility of these elements, possibly to a point where normal metabolic function was restricted. Other accounts of P partitioning between roots and shoots involve interspecific comparisons (Specht & Groves 1966;Rorison 1968;Biddiscombe et al 1969;Keay et al 1970;Barrow 1975;Temple-Smith & Menary 1977;Safaya et al 1979;Caradus 1980), and all but one show the reverse to the results of Gabelman (1976). The exception is Scabiosa columbaria, which has the ability to absorb P in excess of immediate requirements, resulting in high % P levels in its roots (Rorison 1968).…”

As part of a programme to breed a productive white clover (Trifolium repens L.) tolerant of low soil phosphorus (P) levels, 98 white clover and 2 Lotus pedunculatus Cav. genotypes were examined for partitioning of P, nitrogen (N), and dry matter within the plant, and for concentration of P and N within leaves, stolons, and roots. Genotypes were grown in pots with either 300 or 2000 mg P per kg soil. Differences among genotypes for 0,10 P content and partitioning of P within the plant did not result in differences in dry matter response to added P fertiliser between genotypes. Genotypes that allocate a high proportion of total P to shoots and have low shoot % P were large-leaved and had high herbage yields, but a low proportion of dry matter in stolons suggested that they would be nonpersistent in grazed, low P swards. Ge~otypes collected from hill country swards had a high proportion of dry matter in stolons but were low yielding, had a high shoot % P and a low NIP ratio. There was sufficient variation among genotypes to suggest that selections of persistent plants that have a low harvest index, low shoot % P, and high NIP ratio may be successful.
