Abstract

The 3,4-dimethyl pyrazole phosphate (DMPP) has been applied in long-scale agricultural production. This research investigated the phosphorus (P) release capacity by two types of phosphate solubilizing fungi (PSF) Aspergillus niger and Penicillium oxalicum under different DMPP concentrations. The 10 and 20 mg/L DMPP can enhance the P release capacity in two PSF Aspergillus niger and Penicillium oxalicum, respectively. Both the P release capacity in these two fungi was limited in a higher DMPP concentration (>20 mg/L). Oxalic and citric acids were the primary organic acids secreted by Aspergillus niger and Penicillium oxalicum under different DMPP concentrations, respectively. Meanwhile, DMPP can also affect the pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme activity in these two fungi. This research indicated that the use of DMPP should be more attention to PSF and P release in soil.
