Alleviation of lead toxicity and enhancement of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield and antioxidant capacity using silicon and humic acid amendments in contaminated soil

Lead (Pb) contaminates agricultural soils, endangering human health, plant life, and the global food supply. Several strategies have been explored to mitigate Pb toxicity. Silicon (Si) can be used to increase crop production and sustain crop growth under heavy-metal stress. A field trial was conducted to assess the inf...
