Abstract: |
This aim of this research was to study the reduction mechanism of cadmium and improve the silicon fertilizer application process to inhibit cadmium(Cd) accumulation in rice, according to field trials. The results showed that silicon increased the pH of soil(0.160~0.290) and reduced the availability of cadmium. In contrast, basal application enhanced crop yield by 9.7%(P<0.05); and cadmium levels in rice stem, leaf, husk, and grain were significantly lowered, by 31.9%,65.8%,46.1%, and 25.3%, respectively(P<0.05). Meanwhile, silicon effectively inhibited cadmium transport from the stem to the leaf and husk, which reduced the Cd accumulation in grain. In addition, silicon fertilizer significantly increased the silica content in the stem, leaf, and husk to 44.1%, 71.5% and 28.8%, respectively(P<0.05). Our study suggested that basal silicon fertilizer could reduce the availability of Cd, prevent Cd migration and accumulation, and increase rice production simultaneously. Basal dressing is recommended as a method of silicon fertilizer application in Cd-polluted paddy fields. |
