Silicon-Mediated Enhancement of Heavy Metal Tolerance in Rice at Different Growth Stages
Silicon (Si) plays important roles in alleviating heavy metal stress in rice plants. Here we investigated the physiological response of rice at different growth stages under the silicon-induced mitigation of cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) toxicity. Si treatment increased the dry weight of shoots and roo...
