Silicon Fertigation and Azospirillum brasilense Modulate the Microbiological Profile of Total Mixed Ration Silage for Dairy Goats

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of fertigation with silicon (Si) combined with inoculation with Azospirillum brasilense during off-season corn cultivation on the fermentation profile, microbiological quality, and chemical and bromatological composition of...

Differential stoichiometric responses of tolerant and susceptible sugarcane cultivars to silicon under drought and bacterial leaf scald

Sugarcane production is frequently impacted by the simultaneous occurrence of water deficit and diseases such as leaf scald, caused by Xanthomonas albilineans . These stresses can disrupt water relations, nutrient balance, and biomass production. Silicon (Si) has been reported to...
