Influence of silicon nano-particles on Avena sativa L. to alleviate the biotic stress of Rhizoctonia solani

Abstract Avena sativa L. a cereal crop that is badly affected by several abiotic and biotic stresses. In the current study, silicon nanoparticles are used to mitigate the harmful effects of root rot disease caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn on the growth of A. sativa. In vitro (Petri plates) and in...
