Effects of Silicon on the growth, ion distribution and physiological mechanisms that alleviate oxidative stress induced by powdery mildew infection in pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo, var. Styriac)
Silicon (Si) is considered as one of the beneficial elements for plants that play important roles in plant resistance to stresses. In this experiment, the effects of three levels of silicon (0, 0.85 and 1.7 mM) on the growth and physiological processes of pumpkin were studied in plants inoculated wi...
