Abstract
- Soil P fraction, microbial biomass P (MBP), and activities of acid phosphomonoesterase (ACP) and phosphodiesterase (PD) were analyzed under evergreen broad-leaved forest, mixed forest and coniferous forest in Daiyun Mountains. The results showed that labile-P comprised only 1.0%-4.5% of soil total phosphorus (TP). The ratio of soil carbon to organic phosphorus (C:Po) was >200, indicating phosphorus limitation across the three vegetation types. Organic phosphorus (Po) was a significant fraction of soil P, which accounted for 44.8%-47.1% and 28.6%-30.6% of TP in A and B horizons, respectively. Results from the redundancy analysis showed that the changes in P fractions were mainly driven by PD in the A horizon and by ACP in the B horizon. Moreover, the activities of PD and ACP had a significant negative correlation with Po. The results suggested that phosphorus deficiency occurred in the three vegetation types, and that PD and ACP could play major roles in the depletion of soil Po in response to phosphorus limitation in subtropical forests.
