Abstract
A poster showing significant depletion of topsoil P over 10 years following establishment of plantation forest on grassland was mainly attributed to enhanced mineralisation of readily extractable organic P due to a combination of factors including decomposition of pasture residues, tree uptake, and the actions of mycorrhizal fungi associated with tree roots.
