Physiological And Histopathological Analyses Of Silicon Mediated Resistance On Rigidoporus Microporus In Rubber Rootstock Seedlings (Hevea Brasiliensis)

White root disease (WRD) is the most severe root disease caused by a soil-borne fungus, mainly Rigidoporus microporus. This pathogen destroys the root system, leading to the death of the rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg. The periodical application of chemical fungicides (propiconazole) to...
