Phosphorus is an essential component of nucleic acids, phospholipids, and energy-rich phosphate compounds, thus, it plays crucial role in root growth, fruit and seed development, and disease resistance. Phosphorus deficiency can stunt plant growth

restriction is an alternative way to control growth in greenhouse crops ( Gibson et al., 2007 ; Henry et al., 2017 ; Justice and Faust, 2015 ). Phosphorus restriction has a direct effect on limiting internode elongation, resulting in more compact plants

Citrus orchards occupy more than 280,000 ha in Florida. Soils planted to citrus require intensive nutrient management to maximize fruit yield and quality. Traditionally, orchards receive ≈40 kg phosphorus (P) per ha at planting followed by

. Properties of water-soluble nitrogen (N) fertilizers used in Florida commercial horticulture production. Phosphorus fertilizers applied in Florida are almost entirely water-soluble materials. An exception occurs when a polymer-coated N–P–K material is used

Some quantitative physiological data on nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) uptake by woody ornamental species are available in the literature ( Cabrera, 2003 ; Cabrera and Devereaux, 1998 ; Craig et al., 2003 ; Griffin et al., 1999 ), but few
