Integrated application of thiourea and biochar improves maize growth, antioxidant activity and reduces cadmium bioavailability in cadmium-contaminated soil

Original language description

Cadmium (Cd) contamination of croplands jeopardizes sustainable crop production and human health. However, curtailing Cd transfer and mobility in the rhizosphere plant system is challenging. Sole application of biochar (BC) and thiourea (TU) has been reported to restrain Cd toxicity and uptake in plants. However, the combined applications of BC and TU in mitigating the harmful effects of Cd on plants have not yet been thoroughly investigated. Therefore, this study attempts to explore the integrated impact of three maize stalk BC application rates B0 (0 percent w/w), B1 (2,5 percent w/w), and B2 (5 percent w/w) and three TU foliar application rates T0 (0 mg L), T1 (600 mg L), and T2 (1,200 mg L) in remediating the adverse effects of Cd on maize growth, development, and physiology. Results demonstrated that Cd concentration in soil inhibited plant growth by reducing leaf area, photosynthesis activity, and enhanced oxidative stress in maize. Nevertheless, BC and TU application in combination (B2T2) impr
