Root-Driven Reactive Oxygen Species Controls Multidimensional Arsenic Speciation in the Rice Rhizosphere
), sterilization and ROS-quenching experiments, and structural equation modeling indicates that ROS-driven processes play a crucial role under the studied conditions. However, as gene abundance reflects microbial potential rather than activity, microbial contributions cannot be excluded. These findings highlight ROS as a key regulator of As speciation and provide new insights into coupled abiotic-biotic processes in rhizosphere environments.
