'Ranson'] root elongation by hydrogen (H) aluminum (Al) was evaluated in a vertical split-root system. Roots extending from a limed and fertilized soil compartment grew for 12 days into a subsurface compartment containing nutrient solution with treatments consisting of factorial combinations of either pH (4.0, 4.6, and 5.5) and Ca (0.2,2.0,10, and 20mM), Al(7.5,15, and 30 uM) and Ca (2.0, 10, and 20mM) at pH 4.6, or Ca(2,7, and 12mM) levels and counter ions (SO and CI) at pH 4.6. and 15 uM AI. Lenght of tap roots and their laterals increased with solution Ca concentration and pH roots were greater when Ca was supplied as CaSO than CaCI, but increasing Ca concentration from 2 to 12 mM had a greater effect on alleviating AI toxicity than Ca source. In the absence of AI, relative root length (RRL) of tap and lateral roots among pH and Ca treatments was relatefd to the Ca:H molar activity acalcium ahydrogen aroots asoybeans aAlumínio aCálcio aGlycine Max aHidrogênio aRaiz aSoja aSolo aAluminium1 aSMYTH, T.
