Mechanistic Insights into Phosphorus Efficiency and Shoot P Concentration in Chinese Cabbage by Ruifang Zhang, Saisai Hou, Chi Zhang, Hong Wang, Xinxin Wang

“…In this study, eight Chinese cabbage (<i>Brassica rapa pekinensis</i>) genotypes were grown in a culture room under 0, 25, 50, 100, 150, 300, 600, 900, and 1200 mg kg⁻¹ concentrations of P to evaluate root responses in order to define various adaptive strategies in relation to P acquisition. We selected high-PE and low-PE Chinese cabbage in order to identify how different P efficiency groups responded to P supply and shoot P concentration. …”
