Silicon enhances plant resistance to Fusarium wilt by promoting antioxidant potential and photosynthetic capacity in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)

Silicon enhances plant resistance to Fusarium wilt by promoting antioxidant potential and photosynthetic capacity in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)

Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum (Fo), is a severe soil-borne disease affecting cucumber production worldwide, particularly under monocropping in greenhouses. Silicon (Si) plays an important role in improving the resistance of crops to Fusarium wilt, but the underlying...
