What is Size and Composition of Colloidal Phosphorus Across Agricultural Soils Amended with Biochar, Manure and Biogas Slurry about?

Abstract The long-term application of organic amendments like manure, biochar and biogas slurry can increase phosphorus (P) levels in agricultural soils; however, at present, it's not clear how this affects the P association with different mobile water-dispersible colloidal particles (Pcoll). Thus, this study aimed to assess the effects of the long-term application of different organic amendments on the abundance, size and compositional characteristics of Pcoll. For this purpose, a total of 12 soils amended with the above three organic amendments were sampled from the Zhejiang Province, China, and Pcoll were fractionated into nano-sized (NC; 1–20 nm), fine-sized (FC; 20–220 nm), and medium-sized (MC; 220–450 nm) by a combination of differential centrifugation and ultrafiltration steps. These three Pcoll forms together accounted for 74 ± 14% of the total soil solution dissolved P content, indicating that Pcoll release was a key process in the overland P transport from these soils. Soils treated with biochar showed lower Pcoll contents than those treated with manure or slurry alone; this effect should be further explored in a controlled inductive research approach. Compositional anal
