Biofertilizers Based on Silicate-solubilizing Microbes for Crop Production and Protection

Suvendu Das, Pil Joo Kim
ABSTRACT Silicon (Si), an element useful to plants, is abundant in soil, mostly in the form of insoluble silicates. Monosilicic acid, which is soluble, is the only form of Si that plants can take up. The bioavailability of Si reduces several biotic and abiotic stressors to plants and enhances...
