Silicon attenuates calcium deficiency by increasing ascorbic acid content, growth and quality of cabbage leaves

Abstract Calcium (Ca) deficiency in cabbage plants induces oxidative damage, hampering growth and decreasing quality, however, it is hypothesized that silicon (Si) added to the nutrient solution may alleviate crop losses. Therefore, this study aims at evaluating whether silicon supplied in the nutri...
