The study on the behaviourof potassium, phosphate and trace elements, Fe, Mn, Cu and Zn, in the rhizosphere of different varieties of flue-cured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) with high and low potassium application rate with rhizobag technique showed that soil available K, soil available P, and slow available K was in depletion status, whereas DTPA extractable Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu accumulated obviously in rhizosphere. The depletion and accumulation rates of mineral nutrients differed in degree with K application rate, soil type, and tobacco variety. The content of a vailable K in both rhizosphere and bulk soil and K concentration in tobacco leaf increased significantly, and the available P in rhizosphere dropped with more K applicatin. The DTPA-Fe content of red soil much lower in pH was higher than that of calcareous soil in bulk soil. But the DTPA-Fe content of calcareous soil was much higher than that of red soil in rhizosphere, which was considered perhaps to be mainly related to releasing of Fe phyto The study on the behavior of potassium, phosphate and trace elements, Fe, Mn, Cu and Zn, in the rhizosphere of different varieties of flue-cured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) with high and low potassium application rate with rhizobag technique showed that soil available K, soil available P, and slow available K was in depletion status, whereas DTPA extractable Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu accumulation obviously in rhizosphere.
