Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Si application increased the number of tillers and number of grains per spike in wheat under both non-saline and saline field conditions.
- Association The salt-tolerant cultivar 'SARC-5' performed better than 'Auqab-2000' under salt stress.
- Observation When Si was applied, similar effects were observed in both cultivars regardless of salt sensitivity and of saline or non-saline field.
- Mechanism Si enhanced wheat growth by improving K+:Na+, which was adversely influenced by salt stress.
