| Aiming to evaluate the effects of doses silicon and phosphorus on the phosphate nutrition and production in bean plants, two experiments were conducted in a greenhouse using two soils, Orthic Quartzarenic Neosol (RQo) and Dystroferric Red Latosol (LVdf). Each soil was subjected to three incubation sequences: the first with lime to raise the base saturation to 50%, the second with silicic acid, Si with three doses (0, 240 and 410 and 0, 330 and 560 mg dm-3, respectively, for RQo and LVdf) and the third with basic fertilisation, including phosphorus at four different doses (0, 80, 240 and 410 and 0, 110, 330 and 560 mg dm-3 for RQo and LVdf, respectively). The experiment was performed using a completely randomised 3 x 4 factorial, with four replications. The... |
