The Effect of Exogenous Liquid Silicon Fertilizer Treatment on Strawberry Quality
The supply of fertilizer directly affects the growth and development of plants,the quality and firmness of fruits.In this paper,the effects of exogenous application of liquid silicon fertilizer on the growth,yield and quality of strawberry in greenhouse were studied.The results showed that the application of silicon fertilizer could improve the yield,soluble solid content of strawberry fruit,inhibit the expression of cell wall degrading enzyme related genes,thus enhance the fruit hardness,increase the nutrient elements such as K,Ca,Mg and reduce the enrichment of heavy metal elements,and improve the nutrition and safety of strawberry fruit.At the same time,this study also showed that applying 800 times dilution treatment and 400 times dilution treatment at seedling stage and growth stage,respectively,had the best effect on the growth and development of strawberry plants.In summary,exogenous liquid silicon fertilizer had high application value for strawberry fruit quality and plant growth and development,and had a good prospect of popularization and application.
