“…In this regard, Safoora et al (2018) reported that an increase in the rates of potassium silicate caused an increase in most of the quantitative characteristics such as specific leaf area and net photosynthesis rate of strawberry plant. Abdel-Latif et al (2019) pointed out that the highest plant lengths, number of leaves as well as fresh and dry weights/plant of garlic were achieved from foliar application of 4000 ppm potassium silicate compared to the control. Exogenous application of glycine betaine can induce cold tolerance in both unhardened and cold acclimating plants with increasing strawberry growth and yield (Rajashekar et al, 1999).…”

At private farm in Demiana village, Bilqas district, El-Dakahlia governorate, Egypt during the two consecutive winter seasons of 2018 and 2019, experimental field was carried out to study the response of vegetative growth, chemical components in leaves, yield and fruit quality of strawberry (Fragaria ssp.) cv. Fortuna to foliar spray with potassium silicate (KSi), glycine betaine (GB)and their interaction treatments. The experiment was done in split-plot within complete block randomized design. Potassium silicate treatments were four concentrations as (0, 2, 4 and 6 g/l) and glycine betaine were three concentrations as (0, 2.5 and 5 g/l). The obtained results referred to that KSi and GB significantly affected on vegetative growth, chemical components in leaves, yield and quality. Furthermore, foliar application with KSi at 6 g/l gave the highest values of vegetative growth, leaves contents, yield and fruit quality. As well as, foliar application with GB at any concentration significantly improved vegetative growth, chemical components in leaves, yield and fruit quality compared to control. In general, the best interaction treatment in this concern was that KSi at 6 g/l interacted with GB at 5 g/l as foliar spray compared to the other ones under study. Thus, it can be recommended that spraying strawberry plants with potassium silicate at 6 g/l and glycine betaine at 5 g/l can promote vegetative growth and increase the early yield and fruit quality under cold condition that are likely to occur in this period (November to February) which meet main export season..

“…Untreated plants (control) gave the lowest values. Since potassium silicate contains potassium as a primary element, this facilitates the absorption of more of it as well as silicon as a secondary element, resulting in more potassium and silicon accumulating in the leaf and thus being transferred to the tubers very easily (Shehata et al, 2018 andAbdel-Latif et al, 2019). Kanto et al (2004) proved that spraying strawberry plants with potassium silicate leads to an increase in their silicon content by approximately 2 to 24 times compared to the control.…”

“…Potassium silicate ]K2SiO3 (SiO2 25% & K2O 10%)[ was applied as foliar spray at 4000 ppm concentration. The application was started one week after planting the seedlings, then after one, two, three and four months, according to Abdel-Latif et al (2019).…”

The main efforts of scientists to reduce appliance of nematicides that are commonly found in the markets, led to an increase in the demand safety, effective and environment friendly alternatives. Hence, the present research aims to test three safety and effective substances (Potassium silicate; Furfural and Albendazole) single or in combination in the control of root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita infecting ground cherry plants (Physalis pruinosa L.) under field conditions. The obtained results revealed that all tested materials decreased M. incognita J2 population density. Individual treatments gave average reduction percentages of M. incognita J2 as: Potassium silicate 39.4%; Furfural 55.9% and Albendazole 52.1%. The triple treatment (Potassium silicate + Furfural + Albendazole) gave the best results, as it led to decrease in the number of M. incognita J2 by 72.3% more than that occurred by the chemical nematicide (Oxamyl 24%), which gave a reduction percentage of 65.6%. The triple treatment also led to decrease in the numbers of mature females; egg masses and root gall index by 96.5, 95.4 and 83.3%, respectively, while the Oxamyl 24% gave 86.9, 90.5 and 83.3 %, respectively. In addition, the triple treatment caused improvement in the vegetative and fruiting characteristics of treated plants. Thus, triple treatments can be recommended as a safety alternative for plants and humans instead of chemical nematicides in integrated nematode control programs.
