Silicon induces changes in the antioxidant system of millet cultivated in drought and salinity

ABSTRACT In recent years, benefits of silicon in plants grown under stress conditions have been reported. The objective of the research was to evaluate the response at a physiological and biochemical level of millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) to fertilization with Si under controlled stress conditions d...

The objective of the research was to evaluate the response at a physiological and biochemical level of millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) to fertilization with Si under controlled stress conditions during vegetative stage, drought, salinity and the control (without stress). After stress, shoot and root length, DM content, peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) activity, proline, H2O2 and Si content, seed yield and germination percentage were measured. Drought and salinity significantly decreased shoot (24%, 21%) and root (30% in drought) development, weight (36%, 29%) and seed number (30%, 21%) per plant. Application of Si significantly increased seed number (289) and seed weight (1.20 g) in the control plants, increased seed weight (0.83 g) in plants under drought and germination percentage (99%) in plants under salinity. Silicon increased 2.1 times POD activity in drought, 1.4 times in salinity and control plants; CAT activity increased 10.6 times in salinity and 1.7 times in control plants. Silicon decreased 10 times proline levels in plants under drought; in salinity and control, proline content increased 1.3 times with Si and H2O2 levels decreased in these treatments. The Si content in plants fertilized with Si under drought, salinity and control was 6%, 3.54% and 5.45% respectively.
