Aluminum toxicity

If certain soil types become acidic, this can create the ideal conditions for the release of soluble aluminum and manganese which can have a negative impact on plant growth. The consequences of toxic levels of aluminum and manganese include distortion of root tips in plants and will result in a reduction in rhizobia activity in legumes.
