“…Stout et al [63] defined SCseq as "the process of transferring CO 2 from the atmosphere into soils through crop residues". It is defined also as "the process of transferring carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into the soil through crop residue and other organic solids and in a form that is not immediately remitted" [5,64]. Sarfraz et al [21] stated that carbon sequestration is related to accumulating C in a stable solid form.…”

“…As a result, soil is critical to sustaining a balanced global C cycle. Carbon dioxide content has increased by 30% in the atmosphere during the last 150 years [5]. The rising CO 2 level of the atmosphere is a result of human activity and is linked to strong and perhaps catastrophic CC.…”

“…One strategy proposed for reducing atmospheric CO 2 is to enhance C storage in soils. As a result, there is an urgent need to manage soils and boost their capacity to retain more organic C [5,7]. Preventing and minimizing soil overuse, as well as encouraging sustainable land uses, could improve the fertility of the soil, enhance C stocks in soil and biomass, and help agricultural production and food security.…”

Plant Nutrition under Climate Change and Soil Carbon Sequestration

The climate is one of the key elements impacting several cycles connected to soil and plant systems, as well as plant production, soil quality, and environmental quality. Due to heightened human activity, the rate of CO2 is rising in the atmosphere. Changing climatic conditions (such as temperature, CO2, and precipitation) influence plant nutrition in a range of ways, comprising mineralization, decomposition, leaching, and losing nutrients in the soil. Soil carbon sequestration plays an essential function—not only in climate change mitigation but also in plant nutrient accessibility and soil fertility. As a result, there is a significant interest globally in soil carbon capture from atmospheric CO2 and sequestration in the soil via plants. Adopting effective management methods and increasing soil carbon inputs over outputs will consequently play a crucial role in soil carbon sequestration (SCseq) and plant nutrition. As a result, boosting agricultural yield is necessary for food security, notoriously in developing countries. Several unanswered problems remain regarding climate change and its impacts on plant nutrition and global food output, which will be elucidated over time. This review provides several remarkable pieces of information about the influence of changing climatic variables on plant nutrients (availability and uptake). Additionally, it addresses the effect of soil carbon sequestration, as one of climate change mitigations, on plant nutrition and how relevant management practices can positively influence this.

“…(Graber et al, 2010, Hu et al, 2014. This increase in the Trichoderma population may have favored a greater amount of nutrients in the soil, for example, a possible increase in available P contents (Shukla et al, 2017). Muter et al (2017) observed that the application of pelletized biochar from wheat straw together with T. viride resulted in higher germination of maize seeds, as well as increased growth (height of plants) in relation to the treatments with biochar and T. viride applied alone.…”

“…In soil, Trichoderma is favored by the presence of organic matter. The use of Trichoderma in combination with organic waste increased the available P levels, and also favored higher carbon fixation in the soil (Shukla et al, 2017). Muter et al (2017) observed that the application of BCH together with Trichoderma resulted in increased germination of corn seeds, as well as taller plants.…”

The synergistic effect of sewage sludge biochar and Trichoderma harzianum on soybean yield

2019

The use of sewage sludge to produce biochar is one of the best alternatives for the final destination of this material, allowing for reuse of nutrients and reducing the dependence on mineral fertilizers. Sewage sludge biochar (SSB) stands out as an enhancer of the physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil. The use of beneficial microorganisms such as Trichoderma spp. in combination with biochar may have a synergistic effect on the development of different plants and needs to be better studied. The SSB was produced from sewage sludge biomass (SS) obtained from the sewage treatment plant (STP) of the Federal District Environmental Sanitation Company (CAESB), Brasilia, DF, Brazil. The SSB was produced in an electric tubular furnace at 500 °C and showed the following characteristics: carbon (19%), nitrogen (2.3%), hydrogen (1.7%), specific surface area (52.5 m2 g-1), pore volume (0.053 ml g-1). An experiment was carried out in a greenhouse to evaluate the synergistic effect of SSB application (0.5% w/w) in combination with T. harzianum (TH) on soybean development. The treatments adopted were: (1) control – autoclaved soil, (2) TH, (3) SSB and (4) SSB + TH. The SSB was applied 15 days before soybean planting and the TH was applied to the soil two times, once at eight days before planting and the other at the time of planting. The SSB resulted in a 200% increase in the number of pods when compared to the exclusive application of T. harzianum. Application of SSB with T. harzianum increased germination by 20%, as well as a 70% increase in fresh and dry soybean mass in relation to the control. The agronomic indices evaluated in this study demonstrated that the use of SSB in conjunction with T. harzianum presents a synergistic effect, allowing for better development of the soybean plants.
