The effect of silicon on the growth, boron concentrations, malondialdehyde (MDA) content, lipoxygenase (LOX) activity, proline (PRO) and H2O2 accumulation, and the activities of major antioxidant enzymes [superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX)] and non-enzymatic antioxidants (AA) of wheat grown in soil originally with toxic B concentrations were investigated. Application of 5.0 and 10.0 mM Si to the B-toxic soil significantly increased Si concentration in the wheat and counteracted the deleterious effects of B on shoot growth. The contents of PRO, H2O2, MDA, and LOX activity of wheat grown in B-toxic soil were significantly reduced by Si treatments. Compared with control plants, the activities of SOD, CAT, APX and AA contents were decreased when Si was applied. Si alleviates B toxicity in wheat plants by preventing oxidative membrane damage and also translocation of B from root to shoot and/or soil to plant.
