Description:

The endeavor is the initiation of research on silicon based induced resistance in cotton plant against cotton mealy bug. Coadministration of histidine and glutamic acid with sodium silicate results in silicon accumulation in plants 3-4 and 2-3 times more than without these solubilizers. Coadministration of silicon solubilizers with sodium silicate results in approximately 1-2 times increase in mortality, 1-1.5 times prolongation in longevity and 1-2 times reduction in honeydew secretion of three instars and adult female of cotton mealybug than treatment with sodium silicate alone. Histidine results in ~ 1.5 times more silicon accumulation in cotton plants than glutamic acid. Silicon…
