Application of silicon (Si) could greatly boost rice yield and mitigate abiotic stress, especially
drought. A field experiment was conducted during 2015 at the research farm of Hong Duc …

ABSTRACT A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of silicon (diatomaceous
earth, DE) fertilization on growth, yield, and nutrient uptake of rice during the kharif season of …

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of dose and timing of silicon (Si)
application on rice under limited water supply. The treatments for the first study included five …

The introduction of high-yielding varieties, intensive cultivation systems, micronutrient-free
fertiliser application, non-addition of organic manures and imbalanced plant nutrition has led …

Rice is known to be a nutrient exhaustive crop and the application of silicon (Si) has been
reported for the better utilization of plant nutrients from the soil. Hence, the response of the …

BACKGROUND Caryopsis development consists of several processes in the production of
grain yield in field crops. This study evaluated the effect of silicon (Si) on spikelet formation …

After the green revolution, there has been a substantial increase in the productivity of food
crops. But the nutritional aspect of crops could not keep pace with the growing demand of …

Crop plants play an outstanding function in providing food and energy to humans. Rice
(Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important stable crops that have a role in providing the …

In order to investigate the effect of silicon and nitrogen application on yield and nutrient
contents in rice, a field experiment was carried out in randomized block design with three …
