• Silicon impedes stalk penetration by the borer Eldana saccharina in sugarcane (2007, background): “…rate of plant material as a result of poor dietary quality has been reported for some insects, including the addition of Si to the diet (Peterson et al., 1988), this was not evident for E. saccharina in the present study or in previous studies (Keeping & Meyer, 2006; Kvedaras et al., 2007).”
