Blast, caused by Pyricularia oryzae, is the most important fungal disease of rice worldwide. The application of soluble Si to the roots increased Si concentration in leaf tissues as compare to plants grown in soil amended with calcium silicate. X-ray microanalysis revealed that Si deposition was very similar on the leaf epidermis of plants sprayed with soluble Si, root amended with soluble Si or grown in soil amended with calcium silicate. The lesion size, the number of lesions per cm2 of le...

La eficiencia de la nueva tecnología Armurox® fue evaluada como fuente de Silicio biodisponible en Caña de azúcar en dos localidades: Ameca y Autlan en Jalisco (México). Según los resultados obtenidos se pudo corregir favorablemente los niveles de Si en ambas localidades, lo cual se logró con una primera aplicación de Armurox® foliar a los 30 días, después de la brotación en dosis de 10 ml.L-1 y la segunda aplicación de este producto a los 15 días de la primera. Se estimó un i...
