  1. No biochar applied (CK), biochar applied at 6 g/kg (T1), potassium-permanganate-modified biochar applied at 6 g/kg (T2), and phosphoric-acid-modified biochar applied at 6 g/kg (T3). The values are presented as means ± standard deviations (n = 3). Different small letters indicate significant differences at the level of p < 0.05.
