The document discusses a study on the effects of silicon application on the physiological response of tomatoes grown under saline conditions. The study found that leaf temperature, chlorophyll fluorescence, and stomatal conductance varied over the course of the day depending on the type of salt and silicon dose applied, especially in early and late hours. Silicon application mitigated some negative effects of saline stress by decreasing sodium uptake and increasing potassium concentration in leaves.
