Abstract It has been shown that adding biochar to soil can improve nitrogen (N)
uptake and utilization in rice (Oryza sativa L.). However, there is a lack of
research on the physiological alterations of rice as a result of the changes in nitrogen uptake due to the addition of biochar. This study conducted field experiments
in 2015 and 2016 with the goal of testing the hypothesis that the application of
biochar would enhance radiation use efficiency (RUE) of rice by improving the
plant’s ability to take in and utilize nitrogen. Our results demonstrated that the
application of More >
