Phosphorus absorption and use efficiency by Lotus spp. under water stress conditions in two soils: A pot experiment

The response to P and water deficiencies of forage Lotus species has not been sufficiently studied in the Andisol and Vertisol soil orders in Chile’s marginal areas. A pot experiment under cover was carried out between October 2007 and March 2008 to study the effects of P and soil water av...
