Silica in plants: biological, biochemical and chemical studies. (2007, background): “In addition, metal toxicity, salinity, drought and temperature stresses can be alleviated by Si application (Liang et al., 2007) and the means by which Si exerts these protective effects is still under investigation.”
Effect of nano-silicon application on the expression of salt tolerance genes in germinating tomato ('Solanum lycopersicum' L.) seedlings under salt stress (2016, background): “The Si treatments were considered beneficial to plant growth and production (Liang et al., 2007; Ma and Yamaji, 2008).”
Growth and physiological responses of maize (Zea mays L.) to porous silica nanoparticles in soil (2012, background): “fertilizers as a component in sustainable agriculture (Liang et al. 2007; Matichenkov et al. 1999; Lux et al. 1999).”
Drought Stress and Plant Nutrition (2010, background): “Although silicon (Si) has not been traditionally recognized as an essential nutrient due to a lack of evidence regarding its role in plant metabolism, a recent review of the criteria of nutrient essentiality performed by Epstein and Bloom (2005) may permit the reclassification of Si as an essential ”
Antioxidant defense responses: physiological plasticity in higher plants under abiotic constraints (2009, background): “Many enzymes also catalyze the reaction between gluta- thione and H2O2 to form water and oxidized glutathione (Liang et al. 2007).”
Physiological functions of beneficial elements. (2009, neutral): “Zn, Cd and Al silicates), followed by sequestration of the metals in the vacuoles [41,46,53].”
Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, neutral): “Amidst the ongoing debate on the essentiality of silicon, most authors refer to silicon as a ‘semi-essential’ nutrient (Epstein, 1999; Ma and Yamaji, 2006; Liang et al., 2007).”
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles as a biomolecule delivery vehicle in plants (2013, background): “In addition, silica is known for its role as a micronutrient involved in plant growth, regulation and stress (Belanger et al. 2003; Cherif et al. 1994; Fawe et al. 1998; Kauss et al. 2003; Liang et al. 2007; Rodrigues et al. 2003).”
