SUMMARY

Phosphorus availability in tropical soils may be regulated by the decomposition and mineralization of the labile organic phosphorus fraction (Po); therefore, studies assessing the actual contribution of Po to soil composition are necessary. The objective of this study was to evaluate the total and labile Po content in diagnostic surface horizons of different soil types and to assess which soil properties control the accumulation of these P fractions. Samples of different diagnostic surface horizons were studied, namely histic H and O, chernozemic A, and humic A, collected from several Brazilian states. The total fractions of inorganic P (Pi) and organic P (Po) were determined using the sequential acid-base extraction method, and the labile P fraction was determined by extraction with sodium bicarbonate. The recovery rate of Pi + Po relative to nitric-perchloric extraction of total P (TP) ranged from 46 to 99 %. Total Po ranged from 35 to 1077 mg kg-1 (mean of 298 mg kg-1). The labile Po fraction values ranged from 7.2 to 99.5 mg kg-1 (mean of 27.1 mg kg-1). Po represented, on average, 36 to 46 % of the total P extracted and over 70 % of the labile P in all diagnostic horizons. TP was the main property driving Po accumulation in soils according to correlation and multiple regression analyses. Horizons with low P adsorption capacity were observed as leading to high Po lability.

INTRODUCTION

The biological productivity of natural, agricultural, and forest systems is often considered to be limited by the availability of phosphorus (P) in tropical soils (Cardoso et al., 2003; Vincent et al., 2010; Reed et al., 2011). Phosphorus deficiency is caused by its precipitation in solution with ionic forms of Fe, Al, and Ca, and primarily by its adsorption to Fe and Al oxides and oxyhydroxides, which are usually present in larger amounts in weathered and clayey soils (Novais et al., 2007). Under these conditions, P uptake by plants is regulated by organic P (Po) turnover (Tiessen, 2005). The proportion of total Po in the total P composition of soil increases in soils in advanced stages of weathering (Nziguheba & Bünemann, 2005). The content of Po may range from 11 to 40 % of the total P present in the surface layer (Palm et al., 2007).

There are several methods for quantifying the total Po (consisting of different Po compounds) in soil (Turner et al., 2005). Bowman's sequential extraction (Bowman, 1989) has been widely used in studies investigating different soil types and Brazilian land use systems (Condron et al., 1990; Guerra et al., 1996; Matos et al., 2006; Cunha et al., 2007; Zaia et al., 2008, 2012). The results of these studies show a wide variation in Po contents, which are strongly influenced by the concentration of clay, organic C, and total P. In addition, the labile Po fraction (rapid mineralization compounds) has been extracted in sodium bicarbonate (Bowman & Cole, 1978) and is also closely associated with physical and chemical soil properties, especially available P (Guerra et al., 1996; Cunha et al., 2007; Zaia et al., 2008, 2012).

Turner & Engelbrecht found high Po contents in soils with high contents of organic C (28 to 104 g kg-1) in Panama. However, studies of Po in soils formed by different pedogenic processes and with variable (medium to high) organic matter content are still rare in Brazil. These soils have horizons of organic (histic O and H) and mineral (chernozemic A and humic A) constitutions. Studies examining Po content and its labile fraction in these soils are especially important in low-input production systems, with little or no use of P fertilization, because these systems are heavily used in family farming (Friedrich & David, 2009; Ebeling et al., 2013).

The objective of this study was to quantify the total and labile Po contents in diagnostic surface horizons of soils from different regions of Brazil and to assess which soil properties affect accumulation of the P fractions.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

This study was conducted with 38 samples of diagnostic surface horizons of different soil types from different regions of Brazil. A total of 10 samples of histic horizons (O, H), 12 of chernozemic A horizons, and 16 of humic A horizons were used.

The origin, type of diagnostic horizon, horizon thickness, particle size, and chemical properties of the samples are shown in tables 1, 2, and 3 . Total soil phosphorus (TP) was estimated by nitric-perchloric digestion (Bataglia et al., 1983). Remaining phosphorus (Prem) was measured in equilibrium solution after homogenizing a 5-cm3 soil sample with 50 mL of a 10 mmol L-1 CaCl2 solution containing 60 mg L-1 P for 1 h to estimate the buffering capacity potential of P in the soil (Alvarez V. et al., 2000). Extractable P was estimated using Mehlich-1 extractant (available P), and the total Fe2O3 and Al2O3 contents were extracted by sulfuric acid digestion, following Embrapa (1997). The pH values, total organic carbon (TOC) contents, sum of bases (SB), hydrogen contents (H+), cation exchange capacity (CEC), exchangeable aluminum (Al3+), base saturation (V), and sand, silt, and clay contents were obtained from Fontana (2009) and measured using methods described by Embrapa (1997).

Bowman's extraction method was used to quantify the total P of organic compounds (Po) (Bowman, 1989). Inorganic P (Pi) was determined after the clarification of acid and alkaline extracts with activated charcoal (Guerra et al., 1996). The Pi, total P (TP) and Po in acidic and alkaline extracts were determined, and the total Po was calculated as the sum of the Po in the acid and alkaline extracts as follows:

Poacid = TPacid (digested) - Piacid (extracted)

Poalkaline = TPalkaline (digested) - Pialkaline (extracted)

Pototal = Poacid + Poalkaline

The labile Po (rapid mineralization) was determined by extraction with 0.5 mol L-1 NaHCO3 (Bowman & Cole, 1978). Activated carbon was also used to clarify the extracts and to estimate Pi. Labile Po was calculated as the difference between TP and Pi. The Pi concentrations of all extracts and digestions were determined following Murphy & Riley (1962).

The data obtained from the contents of the Pi, Po, and Pi+Po fractions of the surface horizons of different soil types had a normal distribution according to the Lilliefors test. The mean and standard deviation were obtained for descriptive statistics. Simple Pearson correlation analysis and multiple regression between the total organic and labile P and the chemical and physical soil properties were carried out for each diagnosis horizon and for the set of horizons (histic H + chernozemic A + humic A) using the software Statsoft (2007).

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The results regarding the TP (Pi + Po) extracted by Bowman's method showed that a marked proportion of the TP of samples determined by digestion was extracted from the soil horizons (mean of 79 %). The mean recovery rate [(Pi + Po)/TP] was 71 % (variation of 46 to 99 %) in histic horizons, 82 % (variation of 67 to 92 %) in chernozemic A horizons, and 81 % (variation of 52 to 97 %) in humic A horizons (Table 4). The recovery rates found by Condron et al. (1990) ranged from 30 to 107 % of the TP; the recovery rates found by Guerra et al. (1996) ranged from 48 to 109 %; the rates found by Cunha et al. (2007) ranged from 50 to 82 %; and the rates found by Zaia et al. (2012) ranged from 44 to 168 % in the surface layers of different soil types.

There was wide variation in total Po contents within each soil horizon group (Table 4). The total Po variation ranged from 82 to 1077 mg kg-1 (mean of 440 mg kg-1) in histic horizons, from 44 to 279 mg kg-1 (mean of 161 mg kg-1) in chernozemic A horizons, and from 35 to 982 mg kg-1 (mean of 261 mg kg-1) in humic A horizons. The smallest amplitude of total Po contents occurred in the chernozemic A horizons and the largest in the humic A horizons. These results were higher than the values found in the literature (Condron et al., 1990; Guerra et al., 1996; Duda, 2000). Organic soils or mineral horizons with high organic matter content would have high Po content (Stevenson & Cole, 1999; Bowman & Moir, 1993). Duda (2000) found a Po content of 688 mg kg-1 in organic soil in the histic H horizon. Guerra et al. (1996) and Duda (2000) observed Po contents of 70 and 88 mg kg-1, respectively, for a Latossolo Vermelho-Amarelo (Oxisol) in humic A horizons.

There was also a wide variation of labile Po content within each soil horizon group (Table 4). Labile Po values ranged from 19.7 to 78.0 mg kg-1 (mean of 48 mg kg-1) in histic horizons, from 7.2 to 17.5 mg kg-1 (mean of 10.6 mg kg-1) in chernozemic A horizons, and from 7.2 to 99.5 mg kg-1 (mean of 27.1 mg kg-1) in humic A horizons. In addition, the lowest and the highest amplitude of labile Po contents occurred in the chernozemic A and humic A horizons, respectively. The wide variation in labile Po is within the range found in the literature for tropical soils formed by different pedogenetic processes (Cunha et al., 2007; Zaia et al., 2008, 2012). Duda (2000) reported a labile Po content of 50.1 mg kg-1 in a histic H horizon of an organic soil, and Guerra et al. (1996) reported a content of 11.0 mg kg-1 in a surface humic A horizon of a Latossolo (Oxisol).

The Pi contents predominated in the TP composition of the soil (Pi + Po) for all horizons (values above 50 %), except for the histic horizons (H2 and Hp1) and humic A horizons A2 (PF5, RJ2, and RS) and Ap (SP1) (Table 4). The Po contents contributed at an average of 36, 39, and 46 % of the TP for the chernozemic A, humic A, and histic horizons, respectively. There was a greater range of variation (approximately 12 to 68 %) in the distribution of the organic fraction of soil samples in the humic A horizons. In the histic horizons, the variation was from 33 to 66 %, and in the chernozemic A horizons, the variation observed was more uniform, approximately 30 to 42 %. Guerra et al. (1996) reported a Po contribution of 24 % to TP in a humic A horizon of a Latossolo Vermelho-Amarelo (Oxisol), and Duda (2000) observed a Po contribution of 49 % to TP in a histic H horizon in an Organossolo (Histosol). In tropical soils, in general, there is a large prevalence of the inorganic fraction; therefore, Po represents approximately 26 % of the TP (Condron et al., 1990; Guerra et al., 1996; Cunha et al., 2007; Zaia et al., 2008; Turner & Engelbrecht, 2011; Zaia et al., 2012; Gama-Rodrigues et al., 2014).

The Po content predominated in the total labile P composition in all soil horizons, with mean values of 73, 75, and 76 %, for the chernozemic A, histic, and humic A horizons, respectively (Table 4). However, the contribution of the labile organic fraction was highly variable within each horizon. The labile organic fraction ranged from 49 to 89 % in the histic and chernozemic A horizons, and 56 to 91 % in the humic A horizons. The range of variation of the labile Po proportion was much lower compared to the total Po in all horizons. Bowman & Cole (1978), Zaia et al. (2008; 2012) also observed the predominance of the labile organic fraction, indicating that P availability, in the short-term, would not be fully assessed by measurements of available P (Novais & Smith, 1999). The labile Po contributed 10 %, on average, to the total Po content in the soils.

The soils used in this study show wide variation in particle size and chemical properties (Tables 1, 2, and 3 ) and differences in the contents of the extracted P fractions (Table 4). Thus, the use of correlation and regression analyses to assess how P fractions vary in relation to other soil properties and the relationships between the different P fractions was possible.

The values of the correlations between total and labile Po and between the chemical properties and particle size of the surface horizons of the different soil types are shown in table 5. The total and labile Po contents were positively and significantly correlated with TP by digestion for the set of diagnostic horizons (histic H + chernozemic A + humic A). However, there were no significant correlations between labile Po and TP in each diagnostic horizon, although the correlations between total Po and TP were significant for all soil horizons. Total Po was negatively and significantly correlated with Prem only for the set of horizons. However, labile Po was not significantly correlated with Prem either for the set of horizons or for each diagnostic horizon. The total and labile Po fractions were positively correlated with the respective total and labile Pi fractions for the set of diagnostic horizons. However, considering each diagnostic horizon, there was no significant correlation between total Po and total Pi only in the humic A horizon, whereas a significant correlation between the labile P fractions occurred only in the A humic horizons.

The degree of association of organic P fractions with soil properties differed markedly among the diagnostic horizons and for the set of diagnostic horizons (histic H + chernozemic A + humic A). Total Po was positively and significantly correlated to TOC, Al2O3, Fe2O3, and silt contents only in the chernozemic A horizons. Labile Po was positively and negatively correlated with TOC contents and pH values, respectively, for the set of horizons; and it was positively correlated with silt in the humic A horizons. There were no significant correlations between the organic P fractions and the properties of the histic horizons.

However, a more detailed analysis using multiple regressions of the organic P fractions (Table 6) indicates that all the properties of the histic horizons significantly affected labile Po, except for TP, which was not considered in the backward multiple regression analysis. In contrast, the TP, sum of bases (SB), pH, Prem, Al2O3, and Fe2O3 had a significant direct effect on total Po. For the chernozemic A horizons, labile Po was estimated in the multiple regression with Fe2O3, SB, TOC, available P, pH, Prem, and clay, and all of these explanatory variables had a direct significant effect on labile Po. In contrast, multiple regression for estimating total Po was composed of TP, silt, TOC, clay, Fe2O3, and SB, and all these variables showed a direct significant effect. Multiple regression also indicated that in humic A horizons, the variables Prem, clay, SB, and TOC had a direct significant effect on labile Po; whereas PT, pH, Prem, silt, and clay had a direct significant effect on total Po (except for available P). The multiple regression used to estimate labile Po for the set of diagnostic horizons had a low coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.434; p<0.01), and none of the explanatory variables considered directly affected this Po fraction. However, multiple regression composed of all the properties, which was used to estimate total Po, showed a high coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.832; p<0.0001), although only TP directly affected this P fraction.

The results of the correlations and multiple regressions indicate the lack of a close association between Po and organic matter in the soil horizons studied, and indicate that TP was the major property that positively regulated Po accumulation in the soil for the soil horizons studied. Zaia et al. (2012) reported similar results for soils under cacao agroforests. However, Cunha et al. (2007) found positive correlations between Po (total and labile) and TOC for soils under grassland and forest systems. Turner & Engelbrecht (2011) found close positive correlations between total Po (determined by nuclear magnetic resonance) and TP and TOC in soils under natural forests in Panama. Similar results were reported by Gatiboni et al. (2013) when reviewing different methods of soil P fractionation.

The direct positive effect of Prem on labile Po, shown by the multiple regression analyses for the three soil horizon types studied, would indicate that soils with low P adsorption capacity enable high Po lability. As labile Po comprised most of the total labile P (over 70 %), P availability would be regulated by the mineralization of Po. The relationships of Po with particle size and total Fe and Al oxides were fairly inconsistent, showing that these soil properties would be minimally relevant in the Po stabilization process of the soil types studied. Turner & Engelbrecht (2011) reported the absence of a significant correlation between total Po and Fe and Al oxides of low crystallinity (extracted by ammonium oxalate) and clay, but rather that Po was correlated with Mn oxides in soils with high organic matter content in Panama. Similar results were reported by Gama-Rodrigues et al. (2014) for tropical soils from different parts of the world. However, Guerra et al. (1996) and Duda (2000) observed significant correlations between total Po and total Fe and Al oxides (extracted by sulfuric acid digestion), in soils with low to medium TOC content. Condron et al. (1990) also found positive and significant correlations between total Po and Al and Fe oxides (extracted by citrate dithionite) in soils of northeastern Brazil and Ghana. The relationship between Po and clay may be either positive (Guerra et al., 1996; Cunha et al., 2007) or negative (Zaia et al., 2012), with the magnitude and direction of this relationship varying according to different soil types. These results show the need for additional studies regarding the Po stabilization mechanism in soils with high organic matter content because it is commonly assumed that Po, especially in the form of phosphate monoesters (not determined in this study), is stabilized in soils by association with Fe-oxalate and Al-oxalate oxide forms (Harrison, 1987; Ognalaga et al., 1994; Celi & Barberis, 2007).

The weak relationship between Po and pH in the soils studied was also reported by Guerra et al. (1996) for Latossolos (Oxisols) and Argissolos (Ultisol or Alfisol). Harrison (1987) and Gama-Rodrigues et al. (2014) reported that only a small proportion of the variation in Po contents was due to the pH in surface horizons in several parts of the world. However, the significant negative correlation between labile Po and pH (Table 5) would indicate that soils with high pH tend to have lower proportions of P in organic form due to the higher mineralization rate (Cunha et al., 2007).

The results found in this study show the importance of pedogenic processes in determining P status in the soils studied, in which the P supply for plants would be regulated by the turnover of Po, which largely prevailed in the labile fraction. Generally, Po mineralization in tropical soils ranges from 15 to 76 % (Rita et al., 2013). The Po fraction is the main source of P available to plants in low-input agricultural and forest systems in the tropical region (Negassa & Leinweber, 2009; Reed et al., 2011). However, the magnitude of the effect of Po on available P depends on soil type, climate, types of P sources, and land use history (Gama-Rodrigues et al., 2014).

CONCLUSIONS

1. Organic P content was high in the surface horizons with medium and high organic matter content in the different types of soil. However, TP was the main property controlling Po accumulation in the soil, where total Po constituted, on average, 40 % of the total recovered P.

2. The contents of the organic P fractions (total and labile) varied widely within and among the diagnostic horizons.

3. The labile organic fraction largely dominated the labile inorganic fraction in all diagnostic horizons studied.
