Phosphorus (P) is one of the 17 nutrient elements essential for plant growth and development (nickel is the 17th) (Association of American Plant Food Control Officials 2005; Bai, Reilly, and Wood 2006). Phosphorus is also a key component in some agrochemicals, such as phosphorous acid (H 3 PO 3). Thus, there are two types of P closely as
Genes and Growth. Scientists genetically increased the expression, or production, of this enzyme in plant tissues. The modified plants grow more roots, shoots, and leaves. Larger roots help the plants grow well even with little phosphorus. Modified plants had more surface area on their roots.
period given after exposure to phosphorus. For example, plants which were given 9 weeks with phosphorus followed hy 3 weeks without phosphorus weighed g/plant whereas those given exactly the same length of deficiency but as 3 weeks followed by 9 weeks with phosphorus weighed only g/plant.

Low soil phosphorus availability is a primary constraint to plant growth over much of the earth's surface, principally because phosphorus is commonly bound to soil constituents that make it unavailable to plants (Sample, Soper, and Racz, 1980). In agricultural systems, lowphosphorus availability has been addressed through the
· Phosphorus(P) is an essential component of cell membranes, plant genetic material (DNA, RNA) and plant energy systems. Early plant growth is particularly dependent on P because that is when there is a lot of cell division and expansion as stems, buds, shoots and roots form. So phosphorus is needed all over the plant, not just.

Plants deficient in phosphorus are stunted in growth and often have an abnormal darkgreen color. Sugars can accumulate and cause anthocyanin pigments to develop, producing a reddish purple color. This can sometimes be seen in early spring on low phosphorus sites.
Phosphorus is an important macronutrient for plant growth and is acquired by plants mainly as phosphate (P). Phosphate transporters (Phts) are responsible for P and arsenate (AsV) uptake in plants including arsenichyperaccumulator Pteris vittata. P. vittata is efficient in AsV uptake and P utilizat .
Phosphorus is key to vegetal development and life. As one of the lead compounds of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) providing the needed energy to cell multipliion, phosphorus allows DNA formulation and growth. It helps plant's respiration and photosynthesis and .
Many of the soils in the Noble Research Institute service area are low in phosphorus (P).Some of this is due to low P level in the soils' parent material and otheris due to cropping history and nutrient removal. Either way, since P is anessential element for plant growth, we must supply additional fertilizer Pif high crop yields are desired and soil test P levels are low.
The role of phosphorus and potassium in the plant is maintenance. Both are found in high concentrations in areas of new growth and are responsible for keeping the system operating smoothly. Nitrogen. Nitrogen is primarily responsible for vegetative growth. Nitrogen assimilation into amino acids is the building block for protein in the plant.
· Bacteria are capable to increase the plant availability of phosphorus (P) in soil. This study investigates the impact of a tenyear continuous appliion of organic and inorganic P fertilizers on P nutrition of maize and whether there occur beneficial interactions with plantgrowth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) under field conditions.
