- Intervention effect Strigolactone plus acidified biochar significantly improved radish root length by about 47%.
- Intervention effect Strigolactone plus acidified biochar significantly improved plant fresh weight by about 28%.
- Intervention effect Strigolactone plus acidified biochar significantly improved radish plant dry weight by about 96%.
- Intervention effect Strigolactone plus acidified biochar significantly improved chlorophyll a by about 43%.
- Intervention effect Strigolactone plus acidified biochar significantly improved chlorophyll b by about 31%.
- Intervention effect Strigolactone plus acidified biochar significantly improved total chlorophyll by about 37%.
- Intervention effect Acidified biochar alone reduced antioxidant activities more than strigolactone alone under cadmium toxicity.
- Intervention effect Combined strigolactone and acidified biochar decreased antioxidant activities more than the sole application of either.
- Mechanism By regulating antioxidant activities, strigolactone plus acidified biochar can increase radish growth in cadmium-contaminated soils.
