• Effects of silicon and drought stress on tuber yield and leaf biochemical characteristics in potato. (2009, background): “Water defi cit inhibits photosynthesis as it causes chlorophyll content alterations, harms the photosynthetic apparatus (Costa et al., 1997), and decreases leaf stomatal conductance (Hattori et al., 2005).”
• Phylogenetic variation in the silicon composition of plants. (2005, background): “…the maintenance of an effective apoplastic barrier and thereby improve plant resistance to disease and drought stresses (Lux et al., 2002, 2003a, b; Hattori et al., 2005), whilst intra- and extracellular deposition of aluminosilicates in roots and shoots is thought to protect some species from…”
• Plant drought stress: effects, mechanisms and management (2011, unknown): “Exogenously applied silicon lowered the shoot to root ratio, indicating the facilitation of root growth and maintenance of a higher photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance compared with plants grown without silicon application under drought stress (Hattori et al., 2005).”
• Ltd Registered in England and Wales Registered Number : 1072954 Registered office : (2004, background): “In our previous experiment, Si application to sorghum seedlings resulted in maintaining a high photosynthetic rate, high stomatal conductance, and high leaf transpiration rates under water stress (Hattori et al., 2005).”
• Influence of Silicon on Sunflower Cultivars under Drought Stress, I: Growth, Antioxidant Mechanisms, and Lipid Peroxidation (2008, background): “There are a few studies (Gong et al. 2003; Gao et al. 2004; Hattori et al. 2005) on drought tolerance that focus on the effects of Si on osmotic regulation.”
• Growth and Nutrient Use in Four Grasses Under Drought Stress as Mediated by Silicon Fertilizers (2008, background): “Higher water flux observed in silicon-applied sorghum in dry soil was ascribed to lowered hydraulic resistance resulting from increased root growth which favoured water movement from rhizosphere to roots (Hattori et al., 2005).”
• Study of silicon effects on antioxidant enzyme activities and osmotic adjustment of wheat under drought stress. (2018, background): “…drought stress conditions, and Si-applied sorghum had a lower shoot to root (S/R) ratio, indicating the facilitation of root growth and the maintenance of the photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance at a higher level compared with plants grown without Si application (Hattori et al. 2005).”
• Chilling and Drought Stresses in Crop Plants: Implications, Cross Talk, and Potential Management Opportunities (2018, background): “Silicon application improved the plant water status and biomass accumulation in sorghum (Hattori et al., 2005) and wheat (Gong et al., 2003) under drought stress.”
• Role of Mineral Nutrition in Alleviation of Drought Stress in Plants (2011, unknown): “Si could facilitate water uptake and transport in Sorghum bicolor (L.) in drought conditions (Hattori et al., 2005, 2007).”
