Nickel (Ni) toxicity can disorder plant growth and development, while silicon (Si) is important element in ameliorating heavy metal stress. This study investigated the effect of exogenous application Si (2 mM) on cabbage plants exposed to Ni (0.5 mM 1 mM). The impacts root morphology, enzymatic activities, proline glycine betaine (GB) accumulation, reactive oxygen species (ROS), other physiological parameters grown under stress were observed. Exogenous mitigated irreversible damage caused by improving enhancing regulating osmoprotectants (proline betaine), modulating ROC (O2- H2O2), supporting overall physiology. Furthermore, reduced content 67% 72% roots leaves, respectively, improved nutrients (Si, N, P, K) upregulation reducing oxidative findings suggest that foliar 2 enhance regulate nutrient uptake, play a crucial role accumulation. primarily attributed its contribution strengthening defense mechanisms against osmoregulation, thereby alleviating Ni-induced promoting growth.
