Abstract

The purpose of this review is to examine how biochar additions to soil can affect plant diseases caused by soilborne pathogens, with particular attention to mechanisms and knowledge gaps. Until now, biochar soil amendment has been reported to affect the progress of diseases caused by soilborne plant pathogens in six distinct pathosystems. Disease severity frequently exhibits a U-shaped response curve, with a minimum at some intermediate biochar dose. Alteration of plant disease intensity by biochar added to soil may result from its varied influences on the soil–rhizosphere–pathogen–plant system. These influences may involve myriad biochar properties such as nutrient content, water holding capacity, redox activity, adsorption ability, pH and content of toxic or hormone-like compounds. The direct and indirect impacts of biochar on the soil environment, host plant, pathogen and the rhizosphere microbiome can have domino effects on both plant development and disease progress.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
