Plant quality (i.e. C:N) for both weed species was affected more by nutrient concentrations than Si content, and the addition of Si had a negative effect on plant growth. Eichhornia crassipes increased daughter plant production under high Si conditions, while P. stratiotes plants showed no ...
Although Si is not essential for the growth and development of most plants, it plays several positive roles in plant growth [5]. Currently, Si fertilizer is mainly applied to the soil by adding silicon materials such as blast furnace slag, so as to improve the soil and promote plant growth...
The undiscerning industrial activities make the water resources inappropriate for utilization and the accumulation of these pollutants in water is accountable for harmful effects on aquatic plants and animals. An eco-benign approach was explored for the synthesis of silica nanoparticles (KW-NS) using ...
