Effects of nitrogen reduction and aged biochar on soil properties, root characteristics and ascorbic acid glutathione cycle of dryland maize
The results revealed that nitrogen reduction and aged biochar could alleviate the harmful effects of drought stress by improving soil quality, root characteristics, and the enzyme activities in ascorbic acid glutathione (AsA-GSH) cycle of maize which indicate that the nitrogen reduction and aged biochar application might be a sustainable strategy to enhance maize growth under dryland cultivation.
