Abstract The main objective of the research is to assess the role of foliar application of silicon (Si) for enhancing the survival ability of wheat under drought stress
through improving its morphology, physicochemical and antioxidants activities.
Treatments were five doses of Si at the rate of 2, 4, 6 and 8 mM and a control. After
completion of seeds germination, pots were divided into four distinct groups at various field capacity (FC) levels, such as 100% FC (well-irrigated condition), 75% FC
(slight water deficit), 50% FC (modest water deficit) and 25% FC (severe water deficit stress… More >
