Silicon (Si) foliar treatment modulates Capsicum annuum L. (green chilli) growth and stress responses under cadmium and lead stress

Silicon (Si) plays a crucial role in improving plant resilience against abiotic stresses including heavy metals (HMs). However, little is known about its role in chilli plants during HM stresses like cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb). The present study aimed to evaluate the role of Si in chilli plants grow...
