Combination of Biochar and Functional Bacteria Drives the Ecological Improvement of Saline–Alkali Soil

Plants, 2023
The addition of functional bacteria (FB) is low-cost and is widely applied in saline–alkali soil remediation, which may gradually become ineffective due to inter-specific competition with indigenous bacteria. To improve the adaptability of FB, the target
