- The effect of water regulation on organic acids and rhizosphere microorganisms in the root system of drought-tolerant rice under Cd stress (2026) · Frontiers in Plant Science · doi
In summary, this study elucidated the regulatory effects of different water management regimes on root organic acids and rhizosphere microorganisms of aerobic rice under Cd stress, revealed the rhizosphere ecological adaptation mechanisms, and provided new strategies and methods for agroecological regulation and soil health management, as well as a theoretical basis for further research on rice root environment and microbial interaction mechanisms.
