Abstract:
Tlie nature of changes of inositol penta -- and hexaphosphate in some Bangladesh soils have been studied. Mineralization of both the compounds occurred at different moisture levels. Mineralization of inositol penta -- and hexaphosphate was continual, but the rate decreased with time. Mineralization was found to be a function of moisture, organic matter, pH and content of soil inositol penta -- and hexaphosphate with a positive correlation.
