Silicon (Si) application enhanced the tolerance of plants against different environmental
stresses. Therefore, objective of the study revealed that foliar applied Si alleviates the …

Silicon (Si) is a beneficial nutrient for crop plants, and is gaining increased attention
because of its involvement in regulation of abiotic stress tolerance. The present study was …

Plants are exposed to various abiotic stressors in agricultural systems, especially cadmium
(Cd) stress, which hinders plant growth and development. The current study was conducted …

Numerous abiotic stressors including heavy metal stresses, specifically cadmium (Cd) stress
in agricultural bio-system hinder the plant adequate growth. The present study was aimed to …

Silicon (Si) application can boost plant growth and physiology under heavy metal toxicity.
The article aimed to investigate how the foliar and root application of silicon (Si) affects the …

Humans are facing very serious health threats from food contamination with cadmium (Cd),
and Cd uptake by wheat is amongst the main causes of Cd entrance into the food chain. The …

Agricultural soil quality degradation by potentially toxic elements, specifically cadmium (Cd),
poses a significant threat to plant growth and the health of humans. However, the …

SILICON (Si) is beneficial for plant growth and has the potential to alleviate the deleterious
effects of heavy metals in plants grown on contaminated soils. This study aimed to evaluate …

Given that cadmium (Cd) uptake by plants is linked to transpiration rate and activity of
antioxidant enzymes and further that silicon (Si) can regulate them, it was hypothesized that …

We investigated the potential role of silicon in improving tolerance and decreasing cadmium
(Cd) toxicity in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. durum) either through a reduced Cd …
