The empirical coupled-channel (ECC) model and the universal fusion function (UFF) prescription are used to analyse the data of capture cross sections for reactions 39 K+ 181 Ta and 46 K+ 181 Ta reported recently by A. Wakhle et al. [Phys. Rev. C 97, 021602(R) (2018)]. The results of the ECC model are in good agreement with the data of 39 K+ 181 Ta while, for 46 K+ 181 Ta, the predictions of the ECC model overestimate the above-barrier capture cross sections.Comparing the reduced data of these two reactions, it is found that the above-barrier cross sections of 39 K+ 181 Ta are consistent with the UFF and are larger than those of 46 K+ 181 Ta. This implies that the capture cross sections of 46 K+ 181 Ta are suppressed at energies above the Coulomb barrier. Furthermore, at sub-barrier energies, the reduced calculated capture cross sections of 39 K+ 181 Ta are a little larger than those of 46 K+ 181 Ta, which is owing to the coupling to the positive Q-value two-neutron transfer channel.
