Description
The objective of this study was to clarify that the root exudates of Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) expand the basal spacing of hydroxy potassium vermiculite (K-Vt) in the rhizosphere model with a clay-agar system, and to discuss that the action of the root exudates is regarded as a biosignal to release potassium ions from the interlayers of vermiculite clays.
