Opinion. Leaf manganese accumulation and phosphorus-acquisition efficiency. Plants that deploy a phosphorus (P)-mobilising strategy based on the release of carboxylates tend to have high leaf manganese concentrations ( [Mn]). This occurs because the carboxylates mobilise not only soil inorganic and organic P, but also a range …Web

Manganese cycle Manganese in soils is present in three oxidation states: Mn+2, Mn+3 and Mn+4 of which Mn+2 is the primary form in which Mn is absorbed by plants. Manganese becomes plant available after release of Mn+2 into the soil solution, Mn+2 transport to the root surface by mass flow and diffusion, followed by uptakeWeb
