Silicon: The Only Element in Plant Nutrition with a Mitigating Effect on Multiple Stresses
摘要
Silicon (Si) emerges as one of the most relevant elements in plant nutrition for mitigating a wide range of stresses. This review aimed to reinforce the benefits of Si in agriculture, specifically addressing its potential effect on the mitigation of individual and multiple stresses and discussing future research perspectives in this field. Future perspectives suggest that research should deepen studies involving the effects of Si on the soil-microbiota-plant system.
