From iron to sugar: How aerated drip irrigation increases soluble sugar content in citrus fruit through soil microbial communities

Root-zone hypoxia is common in citrus orchards on red soils and limits sugar accumulation in fruit. Aerated drip irrigation (ADI) may improve the soil redox environment, but whether it regulates fruit soluble sugar through microbially driven iron transformation is unclear. A fiel...
