As the addition of sulphur fertilizers to the plant increases the disease resistant along with the quality improvement in grain but want to know how it interact with the phosphorous uptake. Answers along with references will be most appreciated.
Sulphur application increased S content but decreased P content in plants. Total P content increased with applied P individually and decreased with S application. Changes in N: S ratio in plants as affected by S and P application are reported. A negative significant interaction was found to exist between S and P on the yield, grain quality, concentration and total removal of sulphur and phosphorus by crops The antagonistic effect of sulphur and phosphorus fertilizer on the uptake and utilization of each other was more conspicuous when they were applied together.
Antagonistic effect of sulphur on P use efficiency. Application of sulphur reduces P availability in soil. The yield of vegetative tissues and grains increased with the application of S and P individually but decreased when S and P were applied in different combinations. Sulphur application increased S content but decreased P content in straw as well as in grains. Total P content increased with applied P and decreased with S application. Applied sulphur increased and phosphorus decreased the protein content. Changes in N: S ratio in grains as affected by S and P application are reported. A negative significant interaction was found to exist between S and P on the yield, grain quality, concentration and total removal of sulphur and phosphorus. The antagonistic effect of sulphur and phosphorus fertilizer on the uptake and utilization of each other was more conspicuous when they were applied together.
