Abstract Plant species differ in their P efficiency,i.e. the P content in soil needed to reach their maximum yield. The differences in external P requirements can be atributed to either a lower internal P requirement for optimum growth or higher uptake efficiency of the plant. The objective of this research was to investigate the reasons for different P efficiencies of seven plant species. Onion, ryerass, wheat, rape, spinach, tomato and bean were grown in a P-deficient subsoil fertilized with 0, 2, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 80 mg P 100 g−1. All species showed a strong yield increase due to P fertilization. To reach 80% of maximum yield onion and tomato needed 17 and 11 mg P 100 g−1 respectively, corresponding to a soil solution concentrations of 6.9 and 5.7 μmol P l−1, whereas ryegrass, wheat and rape needed about 5 mg P 100g−1 corresponding to only 1.4 μmol P l−1 in soil solution. These differences in external P requirement cannot be explained by differences in their internal P requirement since onion, with the highest external P requirement, only contained 0.14% P in the shoot at 80% of maximum yield, while wheat, as the most P efficient species, contained 0.28%. P efficiency was related to the uptake efficiency of the plant which is determined by both root-shoot ratio and absorption rate per unit of root (influx). Species of low efficiency such as onion, tomato and bean had low influx rates and low root-shoot ratios, whereas species of medium to high efficiency had either high influx rates (rape and spinach) or high root-shoot ratios (ryegrass and wheat). The combination of both high influx rate and high root-shoot ratio was not found in any of the species studied.
