Abstract
Effects of silicon fertilization on moisture content and moisture capacity of Ameristand 201 alfalfa were studied.The results show that different silicon fertilization levels all raised leaves’ moisture content and moisture capacity of the alfalfa,but without significant effects on moisture content of the stem and inflorescence.With the increase of silicon fertilizations,the moisture capacity of leaves increased significantly during the early bud and the reproductive period.Also,the drought resistance of alfalfa was enhanced by the silicon function.Moreover,the silicon fertilization increased the moisture capacity of leaves,maintained its physiological function,and increased the yield of alfalfa.
