Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Low-temperature stress decreased tomato plant height by 46.52% compared with the control after 15 days.
- Intervention effect Low-temperature stress decreased above-ground fresh weight of tomato seedlings by 28.81% compared with the control after 15 days.
- Intervention effect Low-temperature stress decreased underground fresh weight of tomato seedlings by 28.97% compared with the control after 15 days.
- Intervention effect Low temperature up-regulated the activity of antioxidant enzymes in tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Low temperature up-regulated the content of osmotic adjustment substances in tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Low-temperature stress inhibited morphological growth, nutritional quality and fruit yield of tomato.
- Intervention effect Both Si concentrations promoted growth and biomass accumulation of tomato plants under low temperature.
- Intervention effect Si significantly ameliorated the osmotic adjustment and antioxidant capacity of tomato plants, alleviating low-temperature stress.
- Intervention effect 50 mg L−1 ionic Si was the most effective concentration for increasing tomato yield per plant under low-temperature stress, by 22.44% compared with the control.
- Recommendation The study recommends applying 50 mg·L−1 ionic Si fertilizer to mitigate the impact of low-temperature stress on tomato plants.
- Intervention effect 50 mg·L−1 nano Si fertilizer increased tomato yield by 20.15% under normal temperature conditions.
- Intervention effect Nano Si fertilizer significantly enhanced both yield and quality of tomatoes.
