Impacts of Priming with Silicon on the Growth and Tolerance of Maize Plants to Alkaline Stress

Silicon (Si) has been known to augment plant defense against biotic and abiotic pressures. Maize (Zea maize L.) is classified as a Si accumulator and is relatively susceptible to alkaline stress. In this study, seeds of maize were grown in pots and exposed to various concentrations of Na(2)CO(3) (0,...
