摘要
The effect of earthworms on the plant availability of phosphorus (P) in superphosphate and Chatham Rise phosphorite (CRP) was evaluated in a glasshouse experiment using perennial ryegrass over seven harvests. A mixed earthworm population of Lumbricus rubellus (Hoff.) and Allolobophora caliginosa (Savigny) was used. Increases in the yield of ryegrass in the presence of earthworms varied from 2 to 32%, whereas increases in P uptake by ryegrass ranged from 0 to 40% over seven harvests. With superphosphate, the initial increases in both ryegrass yield and P uptake by ryegrass in the presence of earthworms ranged from 20 to 40% at first harvest to less than 10% by the seventh. In marked contrast, earthworms increased the agronomic performance of pelletized CRP by 15 to 30% throughout the trial period. An increase in plant-available soil N concentrations due to earthworm activity probably explains the initial difference in the performance of superphosphate. The increased agronomic effectiveness of CRP appears to result from the incorporation and intimate mixing of the PR with the soil by earthworms. The implications of the results obtained in the present study to the interpretation of glasshouse and field trials evaluating P fertilizers are also discussed.
