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...
