Phytases and Phytase-Labile Organic Phosphorus in Manures and Soils (2013, background): “Indeed, plants accumulate phytate in grains/seeds, in concentrations up to 80% of the total seed P (Bieleski, 1973; Bohn et al., 2008; Lott et al., 2001), as P reserve for seedling growth (Bieleski, 1973; Bohn et al.”
Approaches and challenges to engineering seed phytate and total phosphorus (2009, unknown): “stored in the seed of the major crops is equal to a sum equivalent to greater than 65% of the P applied annually as fertilizer, worldwide [8].”
Effects of Four Independent Low-Phytate Mutations on Barley Agronomic Performance (2006, background): “THE MAJORITY of seed phosphorus (P) is stored as phytic acid (phytate; myo-inositol 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexakisphosphate) (Lott et al., 2000; Raboy, 1997).”
Beans (Phaseolus spp.) – model food legumes (2004, background): “to the P load of the resulting manure (Lott et al. 2000).”
Phytate in foods and significance for humans: food sources, intake, processing, bioavailability, protective role and analysis. (2009, unknown): “92 [110, 117] Macadamia nuts Macadamia integrifolia 0.”
MICROBIAL PHYTASE IN POULTRY NUTRITION (2007, background): “4 million tonnes of phytate-P, which is equivalent to 65% of annual sales of P as fertilisers (Lott et al., 2000).”
Secretion of beta-propeller phytase from tobacco and Arabidopsis roots enhances phosphorus utilization (2005, background): “In virtually all mature seeds, phytic acid is the principal P reserve (50–80% of total P) and plays vital physiological roles in dormancy and seed germination [1,2].”
Super-dosing effects of phytase in poultry and other monogastrics (2011, background): “In feed, phytate is usually present as salt of Mg and K (sometimes Ca is also implicated) known as ‘phytin’ (Lott et al., 2000).”
Phytate and microbial phytase: implications for endogenous nitrogen losses and nutrient availability (2009, background): “In dietary ingredients, phytate exists as a salt of potassium and magnesium and is relatively unreactive (Lott et al., 2000).”
