Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Phytoliths are composed of 66 to 91% SiO2 and 1 to 6% organic carbon (C) known as phytolith occluded carbon (PhytOC). PhytOC is critical for long-term C storage in the agroecosystem.

Comment on "Possible source of ancient carbon in phytolith concentrates from harvested grasses" by G. M. Santos et al. (2012) [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Santos et al. (2012) address the important issue that <SUP>14</SUP>C dating of the carbon occluded in silica phytoliths (PhytOC) isolated from contemporary plant materials can produce ages that are incompatible, being often several kyr older,

Long-term intensive management increased carbon occluded in phytolith (PhytOC) in bamboo forest soils [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2014 Carbon (C) occluded in phytolith (PhytOC) is highly stable at millennium scale and its accumulation in soils can help increase long-term C sequestration. Here, we report that soil PhytOC storage significantly increased with increasing duration under intensive management (mulching and fertilization) in Lei bamboo (Phyllostachys praecox) plantations. The

PLoS ONE, 2014 Carbon (C) occluded in phytolith (PhytOC) is a stable form of C; when PhytOC is returned to the soil through litterfall it is stored in the soil which can be an effective way for long-term C sequestration.

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is the primary greenhouse gas driving global warming, with annual emissions projected to reach 80 billion tons by 2050. One promising pathway for terrestrial carbon (C) sequestration is the occlusion of C within plant silica formations – phytoliths (PhytOC). To evaluate potential of wheat for PhytOC-based CO₂ sequestration, a field
