Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Silicon application to boron-toxic soil significantly increased Si concentration in wheat.
- Intervention effect Silicon counteracted the deleterious effects of boron on wheat shoot growth.
- Intervention effect Silicon treatments significantly reduced proline, H2O2 and MDA contents in wheat grown in B-toxic soil.
- Intervention effect Silicon treatments significantly reduced LOX activity in wheat grown in B-toxic soil.
- Intervention effect Applied Si decreased the content of non-enzymatic antioxidants (AA) in wheat relative to control plants.
- Mechanism Silicon alleviates boron toxicity in wheat by preventing oxidative membrane damage.
