| Abstract | Present investigation focused on solubilization of Mussoorie rock phosphate (MRP) and Udaipur rock phosphate (URP) by fermentative production of organic acids from orange peel (Citrus sinensis) by Aspergillus awamori (F18). Adopting solid state fermentation (SSF) technology, fungus could be cultivated successfully on the autoclaved peel–rock phosphate mixture. To optimize the P release from the rock phosphates, the effect of process variables, such as bed load (2.5 and 5.0 g orange peel 100 ml$^{−1}$ flask), the inoculum concentration (10, 20 and 40 %), the moisture content [57, 75 and 100 % of the maximum water retention capacity (MWRC) of the dried substrate] and incubation period (6–24 days) was investigated. Highest soluble P content of 1393.7 µg g$^{−1}$ substrate was obtained on 24th days of incubation in bed load of 5.0 g substrate, supplemented with URP at humidification pattern of 75 % MWRC and 20 % inoculum (v/w). The recorded increase in soluble P content was 57 %, compared to its 2.5 g bed load counterpart. Oxalic, citric, succinic and malic acid were detected in fermented extract of both MRP and URP. However, their release was affected by the moisture content. Application of fermented orange peel–rock phosphate mixture in soil–plant system improved the available P and phosphatase activity of wheat grown soil by >45 %, compared to conventional practices. Production of soluble P fertilizer using orange peel in SSF is an economical and environment friendly technology that can find application in possible reduction of chemical P input in soil. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
