New insight on the assessment of potassium silicate on pharmaceutical, morphological, and elemental status of Ficus carica: in vitro
The use of potassium silicate enhanced fig growth, elemental content, and pharmacological components; however, a high rate (10.0 mg L<sup>- 1</sup>) diminished most parameters, with the exception of Na and Cr. Further studies using low rates of traditional and nanoparticles of silicate are recommended.
