Abstract
Microbial acquisition and utilization of organic and mineral phosphorus (P) sources in paddy soils are strongly dependent on redox environment and remain the key to understand P turnover and allocation for cell compound synthesis. Using double 32/33P labeling, we traced the P from three sources in a P-limited paddy soil: ferric iron-bound phosphate (Fe-P), wheat straw P (Straw-P), and soil P (Soil-P) in microbial biomass P (MBP) and phospholipids (Phospholipid-P) of individual microbial groups depending on water regimes: (i) continuous flooding or (ii) alternate wetting and drying. 32/33P labeling combined with phospholipid fatty acid analysis allowed to trace P utilization by functional microbial groups. Microbial P nutrition was mainly covered by Soil-P, whereas microorganisms preferred to take up P from mineralized Straw-P than from Fe-P dissolution. The main Straw-P mobilizing agents were Actinobacteria under alternating wetting and drying and other Gram-positive bacteria under continuous flooding. Actinobacteria and arbuscular mycorrhiza increased P incorporation into cell membranes by 1.4-5.8 times under alternate wetting and drying compared to continuous flooding. The Fe-P contribution to MBP was 4-5 times larger in bulk than in rooted soil because (i) rice roots outcompeted microorganisms for P uptake from Fe-P and (ii) rhizodeposits stimulated microbial activity, e.g. phosphomonoesterase production and Straw-P mineralization. Higher phosphomonoesterase activities during slow soil drying compensated for the decreased reductive dissolution of Fe-P. Concluding, microbial P acquisition strategies depend on (i) Soil-P, especially organic P, availability, (ii) the activity of phosphomonoesterases produced by microorganisms and roots, and (iii) P sources - all of which depend on the redox conditions. Maximizing legacy P utilization in the soil as a function of the water regime is one potential way to reduce competition between roots and microbes for P in rice cultivation.

Abstract
Iron-rich phosphorus (P) sorption materials (PSMs) are often used in P removal structures, a best management practice able to sequester dissolved P from surface runoff, subsurface drainage, and wastewater. The use of bottom-upward flow in these structures is of great interest, but it creates an intrinsic complication: the presence of stagnant water between flow events may cause structures to develop anoxic conditions. It is unknown whether the redox sensitivity of iron (Fe), the predominant element in Fe-rich PSMs, will affect P binding under anoxic conditions. Understanding the potential impact of intermittent anoxic conditions on the solubility of previously adsorbed P is imperative for determining the feasibility of the bottom-up flow design. The objective of this research was to investigate the (1) development of anoxic conditions in the presence of Fe-rich PSM and tile drainage, (2) Fe-bound P mobilization and solubility, and (3) changes in P sorption capacity of Fe-rich PSMs after oxic conditions are restored. Three Fe-rich PSMs were tested in batch incubation studies: acid mine drainage residual, Fe-coated alumina, and steel metal shavings. Non-treated and P-treated PSM samples were incubated in biogeochemical reactors for as long as necessary to reach Eh = -200 mV. After incubation, dissolved P concentrations in P-treated samples and non-treated samples were similarly low, indicating stability of P retention of PSMs under anoxic conditions. The P removal ability of non-treated PSMs before and after undergoing incubation was not significantly altered, as determined in flow-through experiments. Potentially harmful trace metals were not detected in the incubated solutions. Our research shows that the development of anoxic conditions does not significantly impact PSMs Fe-bound P dissolution, and the P removal ability of PSMs persists after oxic conditions are reestablished.

Abstract
Microbes affect arsenic accumulation in the arsenic-hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata, but the associated molecular mechanism remains uncertain. Here, we investigated the effect of Enterobacter sp. E1 on arsenic accumulation by P. vittata. Strain E1 presented capacities of arsenate [As(V)] and Fe(III) reduction during cultivation. In the pot experiment with P. vittata, the biomass, arsenic content, and chlorophyll content of P. vittata significantly increased by 30.03%, 74.9%, and 112.1%, respectively. Strikingly, the water-soluble plus exchangeable arsenic (WE-As) significantly increased by 52.05%, while Fe-bound arsenic (Fe-As) decreased by 29.64% in the potted soil treated with strain E1. The possible role of activation of arsenic by strain E1 was subsequently investigated by exposing As(V)-absorbed ferrihydrite to the bacterial culture. Speciation analyses of As showed that strain E1 significantly increased soluble levels of As and Fe and that more As(V) was reduced to arsenite. Additionally, increased microbial diversity and soil enzymatic activities in soils indicated that strain E1 posed few ecological risks. These results indicate that strain E1 effectively increased As accumulation in P. vittata mainly by promoting plant growth and dissolving soil arsenic. Our findings suggest that As(V) and Fe(III)-reducer E1 could be used to enhance the phytoremediation of P. vittata in arsenic-contaminated soils.

Abstract
Limitation of rice growth by low phosphorus (P) availability is a widespread problem in tropical and subtropical soils because of the high content of iron (Fe) (oxyhydr)oxides. Ferric iron-bound P (Fe(III)-P) can serve as a P source in paddies after Fe(III) reduction to Fe(II) and corresponding H2PO4- release. However, the relevance of reductive dissolution of Fe(III)-P for plant and microbial P uptake is still an open question. To quantify this, 32P-labeled ferrihydrite (30.8 mg P kg-1) was added to paddy soil mesocosms with rice to trace the P uptake by microorganisms and plants after Fe(III) reduction. Nearly 2% of 32P was recovered in rice plants, contributing 12% of the total P content in rice shoots and roots after 33 days. In contrast, 32P recovery in microbial biomass decreased from 0.5% to 0.08% of 32P between 10 and 33 days after rice transplantation. Microbial biomass carbon (MBC) and dissolved organic C content decreased from day 10 to 33 by 8-54% and 68-77%, respectively, suggesting that the microbial-mediated Fe(III) reduction was C-limited. The much faster decrease of MBC in rooted (by 54%) vs. bulk soil (8-36%) reflects very fast microbial turnover in the rice rhizosphere (high C and oxygen inputs) resulting in the mineralization of the microbial necromass. In conclusion, Fe(III)-P can serve as small but a relevant P source for rice production and could partly compensate plant P demand. Therefore, the P fertilization strategies should consider the P mobilization from Fe (oxyhydr)oxides in flooded paddy soils during rice growth. An increase in C availability for microorganisms in the rhizosphere intensifies P mobilization, which is especially critical at early stages of rice growth.

Abstract
Strain MG, isolated from an acidic pond sediment on the island of Milos (Greece), is proposed as a novel species of ferrous iron- and sulfur-oxidizing Acidithiobacillus. Currently, four of the eight validated species of this genus oxidize ferrous iron, and strain MG shares many key characteristics with these four, including the capacities for catalyzing the oxidative dissolution of pyrite and for anaerobic growth via ferric iron respiration. Strain MG also grows aerobically on hydrogen and anaerobically on hydrogen coupled to ferric iron reduction. While the 16S rRNA genes of the iron-oxidizing Acidi-thiobacillus species (and strain MG) are located in a distinct phylogenetic clade and are closely related (98–99% 16S rRNA gene identity), genomic relatedness indexes (ANI/dDDH) revealed strong genomic divergence between strain MG and all sequenced type strains of the taxon, and placed MG as the first cultured representative of an ancestral phylotype of iron oxidizing acidithiobacilli. Strain MG is proposed as a novel species, Acidithiobacillus ferrianus sp. nov. The type strain is MGT (= DSM 107098T = JCM 33084T). Similar strains have been found as isolates or indicated by cloned 16S rRNA genes from several mineral sulfide mine sites.

Abstract
Doxycycline plays a key role in Fe(III)-to-Fe(II) redox cycling and therefore in controlling the overall reaction rate of the Fenton-based process (H2O2/Fe(III)). This highlights the autocatalytic profile of doxycycline degradation. Ferric iron reduction in the presence of doxycycline relied on doxycycline-to-Fe(III) complex formation with an ensuing reductive release of Fe(II). The lower ratio of OH-to-contaminant in an initial H2O2/Fe(III) oxidation step than in that of classical Fenton (H2O2/Fe(II)) decreased the doxycycline degradation rate. The quantum yield of doxycycline in direct UV-C photolysis was 3.1 × 10(-3) M E(-1). In spite of doxycycline-Fe(III) complexes could produce the adverse effect on the doxycycline degradation in the UV/Fe(III) system some acceleration of the rate was observed upon irradiation of the Fe(III)-hydroxy complex. Acidic reaction media (pH 3.0) and the molar ratio of DC/Fe(III) = 2/1 favored the complex formation. Doxycycline close degradation rates and complete mineralization achieved for 120 min (Table 1) with both UV/H2O2 and UV/H2O2/Fe(III) indicated the unsubstantial role of the reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II) in UV/H2O2/Fe(III) system efficacy. Thus, factors such as doxycycline's ability to form complexes with ferric iron and the ability of complexes to participate in a reductive pathway should be considered at a technological level in process optimization, with chemistry based on iron ion catalysis to enhance the doxycycline oxidative pathway.
