Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacteria Mobilize Nano-Hydroxyapatite In Vitro with Limited Transferability to Maize (Zea mays L.) Phosphorus Nutrition in Soil
Limited phosphate rock resources and inefficient phosphorus (P) fertilization challenge sustainable crop production. Nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) serves as a model for poorly soluble calcium phosphates relevant to recycled P fertilizers. We tested whether phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) enhance P mobilization from n...
