Summary
- • After nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) is the nutrient that most limits plant productivity. The role of P on growth and root nodulation was studied in the actinorhizal symbiosis between Discaria trinervis and Frankia, an intercellular infected N2–fixing association.
- • Growth, nodulation and nutrient content (N and P) were analysed in symbiotic plants receiving different supplies of P in nutrient solutions. The relative requirement of P for nodulation was analysed in P‐deficient plants.
- • Nodule initiation was less impaired than general plant growth by low P. However, low P impaired nodule growth to a greater extent than plant growth. The proportion of nodule biomass, although not the number of nodules per plant, was stimulated by P supply. Autoregulation of nodulation was not affected by P. Use of N was limited by availability of P. Reserves of P in seeds were enough for the seedling to establish nodules. However nodule (and plant) growth was limited in the absence of exogenous P.
- • It is possible that P interacts with the feedback control of nodule growth that is associated with the plant demand for N. Leaf N : P ratio is negatively correlated with the proportion of nodule tissue.
