Physiological and Biochemical Aspects of Silicon-Mediated Resistance in Maize against Maydis Leaf Blight
Maydis leaf blight (MLB), caused by the necrotrophic fungus <i>Bipolaris maydis</i>, has caused considerable yield losses in maize production. The hypothesis that maize plants with higher foliar silicon (Si) concentration can be more resistant against MLB was investigated in this study....
