• The Challenges and Solutions for Cadmium-contaminated Rice in China: A Critical Review. (2016, background): “…Si-rich slag not only supplements the silicon that is necessary for rice growth, it can also reduce Cd accumulation in the grains through restricting Cd transport from roots to shoots by the cell walls of the endodermis and epidermis with high Si contents (Bian et al., 2016; Zhang et al., 2008b).”
• Mechanisms of Enhanced Heavy Metal Tolerance in Plants by Silicon： A Review (2013, background): “X-ray microanalysis showed that Cd and Si were mainly located in the phytolith borders, which were cell walls in rice (Zhang et al., 2008).”
• Silicon, the silver bullet for mitigating biotic and abiotic stress, and improving grain quality, in rice? (2015, background): “In a time-course study by Zhang et al. (2008) silicon fertilization decreased cadmium assimilation by the plant and decreased cadmium toxicity in solution culture.”
• Barriers, pathways and processes for uptake, translocation and accumulation of nanomaterials in plants – Critical review (2016, background): “Notably, Si can also accumulate in the cytoplasm and can immobilize heavy metals by adsorption to colloidal SiO2 (SiO2-nH2O, in plants known as phytoliths), demonstrating an interesting beneficial effect of natural NPs (Bauer et al., 2011; Wu et al., 2013; Zhang et al., 2008).”
• Cadmium stress in rice: toxic effects, tolerance mechanisms, and management: a critical review (2016, background): “Silicon application increased rice growth by decreasing Cd uptake and ameliorating root functions and structure compared with non-treated rice plants (Zhang et al. 2008; Kim et al. 2014).”
• Silicon mitigates cadmium inhibitory effects in young maize plants. (2009, background): “Similarly, Si reduced Cd toxicity sympoms in rice plants (Shi et al., 2005; Zhang et al., 2008).”
• Silicon alleviates cadmium toxicity in peanut plants in relation to cadmium distribution and stimulation of antioxidative enzymes (2010, background): “Similar results were reported not only in monocotyledon species such as rice (Chen et al. 2000; Shi et al. 2005b; Zhang et al. 2008 ) and maize (Liang et al. 2005), but also in dicotyledonous species such as pak choi (Song et al. 2009) and cucumber (Feng et al. 2009).”
