The combined use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, biochar and nitrogen fertilizer is most beneficial to cultivate Cichorium intybus L. in Cd-contaminated soil

We assessed Cichorium intybus L. (chicory) growth, nutrients and Cd uptake in the presence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), biochar (BC) and nitrogen (N) fertilizer applications in experimental pot studies.
