- Intervention effect Al ions decreased Mg 2 ‐ATPase activity in maize root membrane fractions.
- Intervention effect Al ions changed maize root membrane structure.
- Intervention effect Organic acids partly protected maize root membrane enzymatic activity from Al injury.
- Intervention effect Organic acids partly protected maize root membrane structure from Al injury.
- Mechanism The authors hypothesize that citric and malic acid reduce Al toxicity in maize roots.
