Northwestern University researchers are challenging the long-held belief that iron oxides simply trap phosphorus, revealing instead that they actively help convert it into a form plants can use.

Iron oxides, traditionally seen as phosphorus "sinks," are now recognized as efficient natural catalysts that convert organic phosphorus into its inorganic form, essential for plant growth.

Now, researchers report iron oxides can drive the same conversion at comparable rates as enzymes. The study adds yet another missing piece to nature's mysterious phosphorus cycle that can be used ...

Northwestern University researchers are actively overturning the conventional view of iron oxides as mere phosphorus “sinks.” A critical nutrient for life, most phosphorus in the soil is ...

Most phosphorus in the environment is in an organic form that plants cannot directly use, and traditional understanding suggested only enzymes could convert it into the bioavailable inorganic form.
