Proton release by toods of Medicago murex and Medicago sativa growing in acid conditions, and implications for rizosphere pH changes and nodulation at low pH

Medicago murex nodulates faster and produces more nodules than Medicago sativa in acidic sandy soils. Experiments using a ‘root mat’ approach and videodensitometry examined pH changes in the rhizospheres of nitrate-fed plants of M. murex and M. sativa. Using the ‘root mat’ approach with soil disks o...
