Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the effectiveness of rice straw biochar and fly ash nanoparticles in boosting plant growth and combating bacterial infections in pepper plants caused by Xanthomonas campestris, focusing on both lab and field experiments.* -
  • Results showed that applying these nanoparticles significantly improved chili pepper growth, with rice straw biochar being particularly effective in increasing both above and belowground biomass and inhibiting the bacterial pathogen more than 50% in lab tests.* -
  • The findings suggest that using biochar and fly ash nanoparticles can improve soil conditions and enhance crop productivity, depending on the specific soil type and disease circumstances.*
