Management of phosphorus (P) loss in soils with heavy manure application requires improved understanding of the transformation characteristics of soil P. Influences of manure application on the forms and sorption-desorption characteristics of P in surface (0–30 cm) and subsurface (30–60 cm) layer of a calcareous soil were investigated in this paper in a six-year field trial in comparison to chemical fertilizer application. Hedley fractionation and P K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy were used to determine the soil P forms. Manure (M) and chemical fertilizer (F) treatments resulted in P accumulation in two soil depths, but the total P accumulation in surface soil with M treatment was significantly lower than F treatment with similar P surplus. Compared to control, M and F treatments were significantly increased the proportion of labile P at both depths. In surface soil, M treatment significantly decreased stable Ca-associated P proportion and increased Fe-associated P and inositol hexakisphosphate proportions. The accumulation and transformation of P in M treatment distinctly decreased P sorption maximun, sorption coefficient and buffer capacity, and increased the degree of P saturation and P desorption relative to F treatment. The soil properties of pH, organic carbon (OC), total nitrogen (TN), Mehlich-3 extractable Ca and Fe, and phytase in surface soil and pH, OC, TN, Mehlich-3 extractable Ca and dehydrogenase in subsurface soil had significant effects on the compositions of soil P (P < 0.05), respectively. Finally, lowered pH due to manure application mainly contributed to P transformation and release in the calcareous soil.
