Abstract
The effect of silicon (Si) on phosphorus (P) availability in calcareous soil was studied in an incubation experiment carried out at the Collage of Agriculture, University of Basrah. Treatments were designed according to the following variables: Si levels (0, 100, 200, 300 kg Si ha-1); P levels (0, 12.5, 25, 50 kg P ha-1) and P sources (diammonium phosphate, DAP, and concentrated superphosphate, CSP). Calcium (Ca⁺⁺) in soil solutions, available P and Si were determined at 7, 14 and 30-day incubation periods. The source of Si was K₂SiO₃. Soluble Ca⁺⁺ declined with increasing Si dosages up to 200 kg Si ha-1, then increased at 300 kg Si ha-1. On the other hand, available values of P and Si in soil significantly increased with higher Si dosages till 200 kg Si ha-1 then declined at 300 kg Si ha-1. The mean values of available P at 200 kg Si ha-1 were 67.05, 160.60 and 79.47 mg kg -1 soil for 7, 14 and 30 days of incubation. The effect of P levels, Ca⁺⁺ in soil solutions, available P and Si increased at higher P levels. Data revealed that soil treated with DAP has larger available P over that with CSP, while Ca⁺⁺ in soil solution and available Si are not affected by P source. This suggests that appropriate Si application (100 and 200 kg Si ha-1) could significantly increase P levels in calcareous soils
