Biochar coupled with KNO3 improves tomato yield and quality by modulating photosynthesis, nitrogen metabolism and antioxidant defense.

Extreme drought is the major limiting factor for global tomato production. Biochar and potassium nutrition (KNO3) can improve plant drought tolerance; however, the regulatory mechanisms underlying their combined application in alleviating drought-induced damage in tomatoes remain unclear. This study investigated the in...
