Root-Induced Iron Oxidation and pH Changes in the Lowland Rice Rhizosphere por Begg, C. B. M., Kirk, G.J.D., Mackenzie, A.F., Neue, H.U.

“…The decrease in pH was in part due to protons generated in ferrous iron oxidation, and in part due to protons released from the roots to balance excess intake of cations over anions, N being taken up chiefly as NH4+. But the decrease in pH was less than expected from the net acid production in these two processes, possibly because of proton consumption in CO2 uptake by the roots. …”
