“…For all three Cd concentrations, the Si treatment had no significant effect on rice yield. Some studies have shown that Si foliar spraying not only increases rice yield [ 29 ] but also reduces the accumulation of Cd in brown rice [ 30 ]. The node in the rice stem is the central organ for Cd transfer from the xylem to the phloem [ 31 ].…”

To study the synergistic effects of water management and silicon (Si) foliar spraying on the uptake and transport of cadmium (Cd) in rice, we designed four treatments: conventional intermittent flooding + no Si foliar spraying (CK), continuous flooding throughout the growth stage + no Si foliar spraying (W), conventional intermittent flooding + Si foliar spraying (Si) and continuous flooding throughout the growth stage + Si foliar spraying (WSi). The results show that WSi treatment reduced the uptake and translocation of Cd by rice and significantly reduced the brown rice Cd content, with no effect on rice yield. Compared with CK, the Si treatment increased the net photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (Gs) and transpiration rate (Tr) of rice by 6.5–9.4%, 10.0–16.6% and 2.1–16.8%, respectively. The W treatment decreased these parameters by 20.5–27.9%, 8.6–26.8% and 13.3–23.3%, respectively, and the WSi treatment decreased them by 13.1–21.2%, 3.7–22.3% and 2.2–13.7%, respectively. The superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) activity decreased by 6.7–20.6% and 6.5–9.5%, respectively, following the W treatment. Following the Si treatment, SOD and POD activity increased by 10.2–41.1% and 9.3–25.1%, respectively, and following the WSi treatment, they increased by 6.5–18.1% and 2.6–22.4%, respectively. Si foliar spraying ameliorated the detrimental effects of continuous flooding throughout the growth stage on photosynthesis and antioxidant enzyme activity. We conclude that synergistic continuous flooding throughout the growth stage, combined with Si foliar spraying, can significantly block Cd uptake and translocation and is therefore an effective means of reducing the accumulation of Cd in brown rice.

“…Some studies have reported that humic acid and silicon improve plant growth, providing resistance against abiotic stress and reducing heavy metal stress [22,[55][56][57]. Kim et al [57] reported that silicon mitigated heavy metal stress by regulating endogenous phytohormones, silicon genes and P-type heavy metal ATPases.…”

“…Silicon application to these plants considerably reduced lipid peroxidation, protecting pea tissues against the oxidative stress caused by Cd toxicity [56]. Rostami et al [55] noted that silicon applications altered Cd translocation and physiological trials of Lallemantia royleana, increasing vegatative growth, producing healthier plants under Cd stress. Silicon improves the water content of leaves due to the presence of a silicate layer that improves plant water balance by reducing water loss by transpiration [58].…”

(1) Background: Strawberry plants are strongly affected by heavy-metal-contaminated soils, which affects plant growth, yield and fruit quality. The aim of this work was to study the effects of a combination and individual application of silicon (Si) and humic acid (HA) on growth and development of Rubygem strawberries exposed to cadmium (Cd) in greenhouse conditions. (2) Methods: Morphological, physiological and biochemical parameters, including minerals in roots and leaves were determined. (3) Results: Cd stress in strawberry plants decreased plant fresh and dry weight; leaf stomatal conductance; leaf relative water content and chlorophyll content; number of leaves; leaf area; leaf N, P and K levels; and root P, N, Mg, K and Ca contents. Cd increased membrane permeability, leaf temperature, proline levels and lipid peroxidation. Si and HA individual applications to strawberries mitigated the negative effect of Cd stress on biochemical, physiological, morphological and minerals parameters by decreasing membrane permeability, leaf temperature, proline levels and lipid peroxidation. (4) Conclusions: Our findings highlighted that applications of Si, HA and Si + HA were effective in conferring Cd tolerance in strawberry plants by upregulating their many morphological, physiological and biochemical properties and reducing Cd stress.

Background -Persian shallot (Allium hirtifoliumBoiss.) is an herbaceous and biennial plant belonging to the Alliaceae family. Seed dormancy is common in Persian shallot. Therefore, unlike most plants, Persian shallot is commonly propagated by bulbs. Effect of bulb size on the growth and yield of few plant species has been investigated previously, and their results showed that large-sized bulbs produced more seeds. Effect of gibberellin on the growth and development of different plants is well documented; however, the effect of different concentrations of seeds is not the same. Objectives -The present and foliar application of gibberellic acid on yield, morphological traits, and secondary metabolites of Persian shallot. Methods -A factorial experiment was conducted based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. The experimental treatments were three bulb sizes (small, medium, and large) and four levels of gibberellic acid (control, 3 ). Results -The bulb yield, seed yield, number of bulblets, leaf -1 ) was related to the large-sized bulbs not treated with GA 3 . The application of GA 3 on the medium and large-sized bulbs had a negative effect on bulb yield. The seed yield of the medium that of small-sized bulbs. Using the medium-sized mg g -1 ), whereas foliar application of GA 3 negatively affected allicin content in the produced bulbs so the lowest allicin content (4.72 mg g -1 ) was related to the highest dosage of GA 3 . Exogenous GA 3 at period in all bulb size treatments. Conclusions -By increasing the concentration of GA 3 , the number of produced bulblets was increased. However, the foliar application of GA 3 had a negative effect on the total yield of the bulb and allicin content.
