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.
