The Regulatory Role of Biochar in the Fate of Potassium Fertilizer and Potassium Uptake in Soybean Grown in Diverse Soils

Agronomy
Biochar is known to enhance soil potassium (K) availability and promote plant K uptake; however, its influence on the transformation pathways of fertilizer potassium and the mechanisms regulating crop potassium accumulation remains insufficiently ...

Biochar and Trichoderma viride co-application boosts industrial soybean performance under continuous cropping stress via rhizosphere metabolic reprogramming

Industrial Crops and Products
Continuous monoculture of soybean, a key industrial crop for bio-based products, faces severe yield and quality declines due to soil degradation and microbial dysbiosis. Here, we investigated whether biochar and Trichoderma viride co-application (BT) can
