Abstract:
Nevertheless, Silicon (Si) is not an essential element, however, its beneficial role may not be ignored. Si alleviates a variety of abiotic stresses such as salinity stress, metal toxicity, moisture stress, radiation damage, high temperature and freezing etc. These beneficial effects are primarily attributed to the high accumulation of silica on the tissue surface. In view of the importance of silicon in pushing up production and other beneficiary effects on growth and yield of crops. Therefore, review of the research works done on silicon are summarized below.
