The continuous application of biochar in field: effects on P fraction, P sorption and release

Qiujun Wang et al.

Summary: The application of biochar in conjunction with chemical fertilizer significantly increased total and available phosphorus content in soil, as well as enhanced sorption and release capacity of phosphorus. Surprisingly, the biochar treatment showed higher sorption and release capacity compared to the chemical fertilizer treatment, implying physical sorption may be the main mechanism for improving phosphorus availability in soil after continuous 2-years application in the field.

Effect of soil amendments on molybdenum availability in mine affected agricultural soils

Xiaoqing Wang et al.

Summary: This study evaluated potential practical techniques for chemical immobilization of molybdenum (Mo) contaminated agricultural soils using up to six different amendments from four materials. The results showed that biosolids, water treatment residues, and magnetite were effective in reducing molybdenum extractability and uptake by plants in lightly and moderately contaminated soils.

Biochar amendment improved fruit quality and soil properties and microbial communities at different depths in citrus production

Mengyang Zhang et al.

Summary: Studies on the application of biochar in citrus production are rare and unsystematic. Our research systematically explored the effects of biochar on citrus quality, soil nutrient status, heavy metal environment, and microbial communities in citrus production. Results showed that biochar had positive effects on citrus fruit indexes, soil physicochemical properties, and enrichment of beneficial bacteria.

Glutamate dehydrogenase isogenes CsGDHs cooperate with glutamine synthetase isogenes CsGSs to assimilate ammonium in tea plant (Camellia sinensis L.)

Dandan Tang et al.

Summary: Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) plays a central role in nitrogen metabolism in tea plants, with three isogenes identified. The cooperation between CsGDHs and CsGSs in ammonium assimilation is more pronounced under high ammonium conditions. Additionally, CsGDHs are found to be crucial in ammonium assimilation in chlorotic tea leaves, suggesting their important functions in nitrogen metabolism.

Nitrogen assimilation under osmotic stress in maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings

Hassan H. A. Mostafa et al.

Summary: This study revealed that under osmotic stress, nitrogen assimilation was increased at high nitrogen levels, while activities of related enzymes were negatively affected by nitrogen levels. Genes involved in the nitrogen assimilation pathway showed higher expression levels at low nitrogen levels under osmotic stress.

Biochar modulates mineral nitrogen dynamics in soil and terrestrial ecosystems: A critical review

Zahoor Ahmad et al.

Summary: Biochar has become a focal point of research in agro-environmental studies due to its unique functionality, cost-effectiveness, and recyclability potential. It has shown conflicting results in modulating nitrogen dynamics in soil, with short-term experiments indicating positive effects on available nitrogen inputs and reduction of losses, while long-term field investigations show minimal or negative effects. It is important to contextualize lab-scale experiments based on real field data to better understand the complex reactions involved in modulating the nitrogen cycle in the charosphere.
