a Modified from Tanaka and <strong>Yoshida</strong> (1970).<br />

If a soil is high in active iron, especially when it is also high in easily reducible<br />

manganese, it resists the lowering <strong>of</strong> redox potential, and the iron level remains<br />

low. Such soils have a high phosphorus absorption coefficient especially when<br />

they are high in active aluminum; phosphorus deficiency therefore tends to<br />

develop. If such soils contain a large amount <strong>of</strong> organic matter, the iron content<br />

can be very high and the rice plant may suffer from both phosphorus deficiency and<br />

iron toxicity. These disorders occur on soils formed from the early stages <strong>of</strong> the<br />

laterization <strong>of</strong> basic rocks.<br />

If a soil contains a large amount <strong>of</strong> easily reducible manganese, manganese<br />

toxicity may develop. However, such cases are probably not common because the<br />

rice plant tolerates a tissue manganese content as high as 7,000 ppm.<br />

If the active iron content is not high, the soil redox potential falls quickly, the<br />

iron concentration in the soil solution rises sharply, and iron toxicity may develop.
