AIMS: The objectives were to investigate (i) the forms and release pattern of P from an ash-rich biochar-amended sandy soil; (ii) the transformation of biochar P in a soil-plant system. METHODS: Several methodologies (a bioassay test, soluble P extractions, a sequential P fractionation and successiv...
