Biochar and γ-Aminobutyric acid partnership improves rice productivity and mitigates Sb + Pb toxicity in co-contaminated soil
Therefore, combining BC with GABA can mitigate the antimony and lead toxicity by increasing antioxidant activities, osmolyte synthesis, and decreasing their availability. The synergistic application of BC, and GABA presents an effective strategy to enhance sustainable rice production in multi-metal contaminated soils.
