Declining tree health status due to pollutant impacts and nutrient imbalance is widespread in urban forests; however, chemical fertilizer use increasingly avoided reduce eutrophication impacts. Biochar (pyrolyzed organic waste) has been advocated as an alternative soil amendment, but biochar alone generally reduces plant N availability. The combination of either forms or Plant Growth Promoting Microbes (PGPMs) biofertilizers may address these challenges. We examined the effects two wood types with Bacillus velezensis inactivated yeast (IY) biofertilizer a three-month factorial greenhouse experiment Acer saccharinum L. (silver maple) saplings grown representative soil. All treatments combining biochars significantly increased sapling growth, up 91% increase biomass relative controls. physiological responses were closely related uptake patterns, vector analyses indicating that combined effectively addressed limitations both macronutrients (N, P, K, Mg, Ca), micronutrients (B, Fe, Mn, Mo, Na, S, Zn). Biochar-biofertilizer also reduced foliar concentrations Cu, suggesting potential mitigate toxic metal common forestry. conclude selected combinations have substantial promise performance settings.

Abstract Soil salinity is a major nutritional challenge with poor agriculture production characterized by high sodium (Na + ) ions in the soil. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) and biochar have received attention as sustainable strategy to reduce biotic abiotic stress. However, there lack of information regarding incorporation ZnO NPs ameliorate stress (0, 50,100 mM). Therefore, current study aimed investigate potentials application (priming foliar) alone combination on growth nutrient availability spinach plants under Results demonstrated that at higher rate (100 mM) showed maximum retardation inducing oxidative stress, resulted reduced photosynthetic availability. enhanced growth, chlorophyll contents gas exchange parameters improving antioxidant enzymes activity While, significant more pronounced effect was observed combined treatments amendment. More importantly, foliar significantly Na root 57.69%, leaves 61.27% compared respective control. Furthermore, were also found treatment biochar. Overall, proved be an efficient alleviate improve crop quality We inferred effectual status mitigation than priming

Biochar for the Mitigation of Metal/Metalloid Stress in Plants

Journal of Plant Growth Regulation, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 43(10), С. 3303 - 3319

Abstract Metal(loid) pollution has become one of the most pressing environmental issues, threatening all living organisms. stress adversely impacts plant growth, physiology, and overall productivity. Numerous physicochemical approaches have been developed employed to counteract reduce detrimental effects metal(loid)s. However, these methods raised concerns, leading questions about their appropriateness efficacy. Consequently, alternative eco-friendly solutions, such as application biochar, gained prominence. Biochar is a carbon-rich material derived from pyrolysis hydrothermal processes various organic materials. Due its exceptional properties, biochar believed enhance soil quality fertility. Several global studies underscored positive role in reducing uptake metal(loid)s by plants polluted soils. In this article, we explore facets reactions toxicity attempt draw links between use improvements physiology performance. We also review effectiveness phytoremediation, influence on nutrient adsorption mechanisms, assisting growth defense systems.

Today our planet is threatened by climate change, degradation of fertile soil (food insecurity), depletion fossil fuel a combined greenhouse gas emissions. The persistency these problems forces scholars finding better solutions. Biochar becomes the prominent material to secure change carbon sequestering, food security enhancing fertility and creates replacement depleted bio-oil syngas. These are achieved good biochar in sequestration, higher surface area, capturing pollutants other versatile properties. application this imminent Ethiopia low level. Even researchers government not evolved payed attention it. Generally, fascinating properties enormous needs serious indeed further researches for clear impact developing countries.

Sustainable management of organic agricultural wastes: contributions in nutrients availability, pollution mitigation and crop production

Discover Agriculture, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 2(1)

Опубликована: Дек. 26, 2024

Recent climate variability, limited fertile land availability and soil degradation are major constraints to achieve food security for an ever-increasing human population. The adoption of intensive agriculture practices highly productive agrosystems coupled with use agrochemicals has caused significant increases in production worldwide. This exhaustive system generation accumulation large quantities organic wastes, which cause environmental pollution, deteriorate health increase public hazards. Conventional methods waste management such as situ burning landfilling chemical labour intensive, expensive energy-consuming, negatively impact the environment. Therefore, sustainable, eco-friendly socially acceptable agri-technologies have been developed value-added wastes obviate pollution problem. These biological technologies composting, anaerobic digestion, vermicomposting, biochar, phytostimulants, bioremediation pollutants opened new vista management. addition processed amendments (i.e., compost, vermicompost, biogas slurry biochar) matter nutrients availability, stimulates microbial community, contributes towards biocontrol pathogens also causes detoxification pesticides. Furthermore, amendment material, singly or beneficial microbes, improved health, promoted growth plants increased crop yields less dependency on fertilizers. In this article, current used accumulated discussed improving sustainable production, while maintaining sustainability.

Maize is an important cereal in many developed and developing countries of the world. One primary challenges for maize cultivation soil acidity. Acidic a major constrain achieving food security requiring sustainable solutions. Biochar, pyrogenic carbon-rich material, carries reactive surfaces (i.e., high surface area variable charges). Therefore, it facilitates nutrient retention gradual release to plants, thereby supporting crop growth. However, combine effects functionalized biochar with microbes on phosphorus (P) bioavailability plant performance remain unclear. This study investigates application different oxidized biochars (i.e.,fresh rice husk (RHB), pH adjusted RHB control) phosphate solubilizing bacteria <em>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</em>, properties including dynamics grown acid soil. Biochar was using 10% hydrogen peroxide while 8.5. pots having 20 kg or soil-biochar mixture. Overall, treatments increased yield greater giving significant × interactions. Specifically, when applied aeruginosa</em> P availability by 380 % which then contributed increment (291%). We also observed reduction available aluminum (Al) concentration (40% ) compare control. These improvement might have occurred due increase pH, (r²= 0.74), Al toxicity 0.36).Findings this could implications production acidic
