Increasing soil Mn abundance promotes the dissolution and oxidation of Cr(III) and increases the accumulation of Cr in rice grains

Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is more readily taken up by plants than trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) due to its similar chemical structure to phosphate and sulfate. In paddy soils, Cr(VI) of natural origin are mainly produced from Cr(III) oxidized by O2 and Mn(III/IV) oxides, which are affected by rice...

description Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is more readily taken up by plants than trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) due to its similar chemical structure to phosphate and sulfate. In paddy soils, Cr(VI) of natural origin are mainly produced from Cr(III) oxidized by O2 and Mn(III/IV) oxides, which are affected by rice radial oxygen loss (ROL) and Mn(II)-oxidizing microorganisms (MOM). However, little is known about the effect of ROL and Mn abundance on rice Cr uptake. Here, we investigated the effects on Cr(VI) generation and the subsequent Cr uptake and accumulation with the involvement of two rice cultivars with distinct ROL capacities by increasing soil Mn abundance. Results showed that Mn(II) addition to the soil led to more Cr(III) being released into the pore water, and the dissolved Cr(III) was oxidized to Cr(VI) by ROL and biogenic Mn(III/IV) oxides. The concentration of Cr(VI) in soil and pore water increased linearly with the addition of Mn(II) doses. Mn(II) addition promoted the root-to-shoot translocation and grain accumulation of Cr derived mainly from newly generated Cr(VI) in the soil. These results emphasize that rice ROL and MOM promote the oxidative dissolution of Cr(III) at a high level of soil Mn, resulting in more Cr accumulation in rice grains and increasing dietary Cr exposure risks.
