Phylogenetic Variation in the Silicon Composition of Plants
Annals of Botany · 2005 · Vol. 96(6) · pp. 1027–1046
Abstract
A high shoot Si concentration is not a general feature of monocot species. Information on the phylogenetic variation in shoot Si concentration may provide useful palaeoecological and archaeological information, and inform studies of the biogeochemical cycling of Si and those of the molecular genetics of Si uptake and transport in plants.
