Abstract:Considering the classification of Genipa americana L. in the ecological succession, excessive exposure to light can be stressful condition, and promotes changes on mineral metabolism and morphophysiology. Foliar application of potassium silicate (K2SiO3) has demonstrated to be a promising alternative for induced tolerance. We aimed to evaluate the effect of applying K2SiO3 on nutrition and growth of G. americana seedlings under two luminous ambiences. Four doses of K2SiO3 via foliar spray were tested: 0.0, 2.5… Show more
