Soil contamination with arsenic (As) is becoming a serious concern for living organisms. Arsenic nonessential metalloid plants, humans, and other Biochar (BC) very effective amendment to remediate polluted soils it received great attention owing its appreciable results. toxicity negatively affects plant morph-physiological biochemical functioning upsurges the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which affect cellular structures. also reduces seed germination impedes growth by decreasing nutrient uptake, causing oxidative damage disrupting photosynthetic efficiency. Plants use different strategies like antioxidant defense increased osmolyte synthesis counteract As toxicity; nevertheless, this not enough counter toxic impacts As. Thus, applying BC has shown tremendous potential toxicity. application As-polluted improves water maintains membrane stability homeostasis, increases synthesis, gene expression, activities, leading better performance. Additionally, modulates soil pH, availability, causes immobilization, decreases uptake accumulation in tissues, ensures safer production. The present review describes sources, As, ways lower environment decrease on ecosystem, food chain. It concentrates mechanisms mediated alleviate research gaps that must be fulfilled future. Therefore, current will help develop innovative minimize reduce their humans environment.

The use of biochar has recently garnered significant attention as an agricultural management technique highly endorsed by the scientific community. Biochar, owing to its high carbon content, contributes increased organic matter storage in soil, consequently enhancing crop growth. This study aimed elucidate changes physicochemical soil fertility and durum wheat (Triticum durum) var. Vitron production under influence three doses (0 g/kg, 5 15 g/kg soil) combination with varying levels drought stress (100 %, 80 40 20 % field capacity 'FC'). Notably, we observed a substantial increase all parameters, except for active calcium carbonate equivalent (ACCE), which displayed lower values (8.78 ± 1.43 %) soils treated compared control (15.69 4.03 %). dose yielded highest moisture content (8.81 pH value (7.83). However, (4.89 0.17 total 'TCCE' (3.67 0.48 were g/kg. Nevertheless, regarding plant growth, no improvements terms height above-ground biomass (AGB). Conversely, leaf surface area exhibited application, along chlorophyll pigment content. On other hand, significantly hindered height, AGB, water reserves, resulting 13.48 1.60 cm, 1.57 0.31g/plant, 41.79 1.67 respectively. interaction between appeared mitigate limit impact stress. enhancement reserves was observed. For example, 6.95 while it 12.76 15g biochar/kg FC. A similar trend matter, TCCE, electrical conductivity. effect positively influenced b well when combined amendment, AGB decreased. addition improved physiological parameters plants. stress, especially cases reduced productivity did not witness any improvements.
