“…[68] Relative to sediments, there have been far fewer studies of inositol phosphates in the water column. Most have used phytase to hydrolyse phytate to orthophosphate [69][70][71] ; although, as pointed out by several authors, phytase is not absolutely specific for inositol phosphates but can also hydrolyse other organic P esters. [64,71] Inositol phosphates have also been detected in NaOH-EDTA extracts of freeze-dried water samples using 31 P NMR spectroscopy [72] although, as will be discussed later, this technique is probably not applicable for routine analysis.…”

Environmental context. Organic phosphorus can be one of the major fractions of phosphorus in many aquatic ecosystems. This paper discusses the distribution, cycling and ecological significance of five major classes of organic P in the aquatic environment and discusses several principles to guide organic P research into the future.Abstract. Organic phosphorus can be one of the major fractions of phosphorus in many aquatic ecosystems. Unfortunately, in many studies the 'organic' P fraction is operationally defined. However, there are an increasing number of studies where the organic P species have been structurally characterised -in part because of the adoption of 31 P NMR spectroscopic techniques. There are five classes of organic P species that have been specifically identified in the aquatic environment -nucleic acids, other nucleotides, inositol phosphates, phospholipids and phosphonates. This paper explores the identification, quantification, biogeochemical cycling and ecological significance of these organic P compounds. Based on this analysis, the paper then identifies a number of principles which could guide the research of organic P into the future. There is an ongoing need to develop methods for quickly and accurately identifying and quantifying organic P species in the environment. The types of ecosystems in which organic P dynamics are studied needs to be expanded; flowing waters, floodplains and small wetlands are currently all under-represented in the literature. While enzymatic hydrolysis is an important transformation pathway for the breakdown of organic P, more effort needs to be directed towards studying other potential transformation pathways. Similarly effort should be directed to estimating the rates of transformations, not simply reporting on the concentrations. And finally, further work is needed in elucidating other roles of organic P in the environment other than simply a source of P to aquatic organisms.
