Phosphorus (P) phytoavailability decreases with soil weathering, however P dynamics in high-P soils with relatively narrow differences in weathering and further addition of P is not known. In the present study, P dynamics and availability in soils varying in their chemical properties and P availability were examined. Onion plants were grown in 13 high-P soils at two P levels [Ρ0 and Ρ1]. Extractable P was assessed with Olsen, Mechlich-3, ammonium oxalate, and water soluble methods, as well as plant tissues P content and morphological features. Despite the initial high P content, all the measured parameters, including soil P, plant morphology, and P content, further increased at P1 compared to P0. Moreover, water soluble P, bulb weight, and plant P content exhibited greater differences between P0 and P1 in Alfisols. In conclusion, for high-P soils, P application could increase traits, such as onion bulb weight, especially for soils with higher weathering.
