Resumen:

Results of several researches about the application of Si (as Na2SiO3) in agriculture indicate that it improves the agronomic crops performance, especially under stress conditions. The objective of this research was to evaluate Si effect on protein expression, phenolic content, antioxidant capacity of seed from plants subjected to stress due to drought and salinity in the vegetative stage, in proso millet (Panicum miliaceum L) cultivation. Silicon fertilization in millet plants had an effect on root development of plants subjected to irrigation and treated with Si; roots were collected 30 days after sowing (DAS) for proteomic analysis by mass spectrometry.
