Manganese-Oxidizing Antarctic Bacteria (Mn-Oxb) release Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) as secondary Mn(II) oxidation mechanisms to avoid toxicity

Manganese (Mn)-oxidizing bacteria (MnOxb) are an essential group of microorganisms that oxidize soluble Mn(II) to form precipitate Mn(III) minerals, playing a crucial role in soil formation. The Fildes Peninsula is one of the fastest-warming areas globally and, therefore, the maritime Antarctic soil...
