e0“The melon belongs to the family of commercially important cucurbitaceous in the world”
e1“When the coffee grounds (CG) and bean husks (BH) biochar with T+ soil was inoculated, the fresh weight (number of leaves), dry weight, length (of roots and branch), soil acid and alkaline phosphatase, total organic carbon, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, and pH were all increased”

- Intervention effect Coffee grounds and bean husk biochar with T. aureoviride inoculation increased melon fresh weight, dry weight and root and branch length.
- Intervention effect T. aureoviride inoculated coffee grounds biochar increased shoot length and dry biomass of melon by 30 and 22 percent relative to the control.
- Intervention effect Coffee grounds and bean husk biochar with T+ soil inoculation increased soil acid and alkaline phosphatase activity.
- Intervention effect Coffee grounds and bean husk biochar with T+ soil inoculation increased soil potassium and pH.
- Intervention effect Coffee husk biochar with T+ soil showed higher soil microbial biomass carbon.
- Intervention effect Melon plants responded more to the type of biochar than to T. aureoviride inoculation.
