Acid phosphatase (APase) secretion by roots allows plants to mobilize organic phosphorus (P) in low P soils. However, the spatiotemporal dynamics of soil APase activity in response to P-rich patches remain unclear. Here, we grew maize in rhizoboxes with two contrasting soil types and different localized P supplies. soil zymography was applied to examine the spatial-temporal variation of APase activity. We found P-rich patches can induce the secretion of APase from roots, indicating that even mineral P fertilizers were locali
