Abstract

Abstract The forms of P in 24 soils were determined by chemical fractionation. The available P was determined by plant growth experiments. Regression analysis of the P fractions with available P showed that iron P explained most of the variation. Water‐soluble P was the only other fraction significantly contributing to the explained variation.
