The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Characterization of Neutrophilic Fe(II)-Oxidizing Bacteria Isolated from the Rhizosphere of Wetland Plants and Description of Ferritrophicum radicicola gen. nov. sp. nov., and Sideroxydans paludicola sp. nov. (2007, background): “Another study that used hydroponic plant microscosms to specifically examine the influence of FeOB on formation iron plaque found there was a positive correlation between the presence of the FeOB and the accumulation of Fe plaque ( Neubauer, et al 2007 ).”
Rhizosphere: biophysics, biogeochemistry and ecological relevance (2009, background): “Neubauer et al. (2007) showed for Juncus effusus L. that this oxidation process was partly mediated by lithotrophic bacteria in the rhizosphere, besides oxygen leakage from root aerenchyma.”
Formation of Cell-Iron-Mineral Aggregates by Phototrophic and Nitrate-Reducing Anaerobic Fe(II)-Oxidizing Bacteria (2009, background): “…significantly affects many other biogeochemical cycles (e.g. carbon, phosphorous, sulfur) and influences the mobilization, immobilization and transformation of organic and inorganic pollutants (Stumm and Sulzberger 1992; Thamdrup 2000; Cornell and Schwertmann 2003; Neubauer et al. 2007).”
