- Phylogenetic variation in the silicon composition of plants. (2005, background): “Recent reviews report that Si accumulation is, in general, higher in monocot than in non-monocot species (Epstein, 1999; Richmond and Sussman, 2003).”
- A New Method of Dental Microwear Analysis: Application to Extant Primates and Ouranopithecus macedoniensis (Late Miocene of Greece) (2005, background): “For example, the percentage of silica content for dry weight of various alpine grasses and sedges varies from 0.61–5.90% versus between 0.04–1.09% for dicotyledonous trees and conifers (Carnelli et al., 2001).”
- Tooth wear in captive wild ruminant species differs from that of free-ranging conspecifics (2009, background): “The cell walls of monocotyledons may contain a high 21 concentration of silica phytoliths (Kaufman et al., 1985; Carnelli et al., 2001), the 22 abrasiveness of which is considered as an adaptive response to overgrazing by 23 ungulates (Baker et al., 1959; McNaughton et al., 1985).”
- Phytolith types and type-frequencies in subalpine-alpine plant species of the European Alps (2004, methodology): “Among the plants previously analysed for biogenic silica (Carnelli et al., 2001), species with very low biogenic silica content and rare identifiable phytoliths were not taken into account [i.”
- The Global Biogeochemical Silicon Cycle (2009, background): “Among other graminoid dominated vegetation types, bamboo forests [75], papyrus dominated wetlands [76], alpine and sub-alpine grasslands [77] and temperate tidal marshes [9]”
