ABSTRACT
Aim of this study to review information on various aspects of P fertilization in rice i.e., P nutrition of rice, P response of rice plant, P availability in rice soils and P adsorption in rice soils for better understanding of P fertilization in rice culture. A substantial portion of the applied P along with the soil P is lost from rice fields to water bodies causing environmental pollution problems through eutrophication. These pollution problems can be minimized by using proper source of P as fertilizer, proper timing and methods of P fertilizer application, soil P management, transport management, use of plant growth promoting microorganisms which helps in efficient use of P by crops and use of green manure crops which improves soil fertility as well as helps in efficient use of P by crops.

The O-specific polysaccharides of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vignicola GSPB 2795 and GSPB 2796 were studied by sugar and methylation analyses, Smith degradation, ID, 2D 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. It was found that the polysaccharides are similar branched D-rhamnans lacking strict regularity, and their structures can be described as follows: [carbohydrate equation: see text] where Rha(v) is present in a non-stoichiometric amount, which varies from strain to strain.

The O-chain polysaccharide of the lipopolysaccharide of Xanthomonas campestris pv. manihotis strains GSPB 2755 and GSPB 2364 was studied by sugar and methylation analyses and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, including 2D COSY, TOCSY, NOESY, and H-detected 1H, 13C heteronuclear multiple-quantum coherence (HMQC) experiments. The polysaccharide was found to contain L-rhamnose and L-xylose in the ratio 3:1, and the following structure of the tetrasaccharide repeating unit was established: [formula: see text]
