Other claims from this paper (13)
- Observation Gimeza 10 exceeded Sakha 94 on yield criteria other than protein yield.
- Observation Sakha 94 exceeded Gimeza 10 on protein yield.
- Intervention effect The highest silicon rate decreased soil salinity hazard.
- Intervention effect The highest silicon rate significantly increased yield criteria in both cultivars.
- Observation Gimeza 10 with silicon at 300 kg/fed and moderate salinity had the highest grain yield and components.
- Observation Gimeza 10 treated with silicon at 300 kg/fed had the highest protein yield.
- Intervention effect Silicon at 300 kg/fed significantly improved Gimeza 10 grain yield relative to Sakha 94.
- Intervention effect Silicon significantly increased grain potassium content under saline conditions.
- Observation Sakha 94 grain had higher sodium content under saline soil conditions.
- Intervention effect Silicon significantly reduced grain sodium content.
- Intervention effect Silicon significantly increased grain potassium to sodium ratio.
- Mechanism High potassium and low sodium in grain may help explain silicon-induced salinity tolerance.
- Recommendation The authors recommended 300kg/fed silicon and Gimeza 10 with moderately saline irrigation for promising yield.
