Phosphate solubilization by Penicillium spp. closely associated with wheat roots (2004, background): “Gerretsen (1948) initially demonstrated that microbiological activity in the rhizosphere could dissolve sparingly soluble inorganic P and increase plant growth.”
Solubilisation of inorganic phosphates by inoculant strains from tropical legumes (2011, background): “Among the alternatives that enable improvements in the efficient use of insoluble inorganic phosphates, we emphasise the action of microorganisms able to solubilise inorganic low soluble phosphates (Gerretsen, 1948; Sylvester-Bradley et al., 1982).”
Tricalcium phosphate is inappropriate as a universal selection factor for isolating and testing phosphate-solubilizing bacteria that enhance plant growth: a proposal for an alternative procedure (2013, background): “In particular, Fe phosphate was reported to be moderately available to plants (Gerretsen 1948).”
