Goethite affects phytolith dissolution through clay particle aggregation and pH regulation
Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 2023 17 Formed in plant tissues as fine silica particles, phytoliths are deposited within plant debris in soils where 18 they can dissolve and feed silicon (Si) fluxes to the biosphere and hydrosphere. Yet, soil phytoliths can be 19 protected from dissolution

Assessing Open Science Practices in Phytolith Research
Open Quaternary, 2022 Open science is an integral part of all scientific research, but the extent of open science practices in phytolith research is unknown. Phytolith analysis examines silica bodies that are initially formed within and between plant cells during the life of ...

Electron probe microanalysis of the elemental composition of phytoliths from woody bamboo species.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) is promising for accurately determining elemental components in micro-areas of individual phytolith particles, interpreting compositional features and formation mechanisms of phytoliths in plants, identifying ...

Effects of lanthanum and acid rain stress on the bio-sequestration of lanthanum in phytoliths in germinated rice seeds. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 REEs in the environment can be absorbed by plants and sequestered by plant phytoliths. Acid rain can directly or indirectly affect plant physiological functions. Currently, the effects of REEs and acid rain on phytolith-REEs complex in plants are not yet

Controls for phytolith accumulation in Moso bamboo leaves across China.
Science of the Total Environment, 2023 Phytoliths are amorphous silica formed gradually in plant tissue, which have great potential to mitigate climate change due to their resistance to decomposition and their ability to occlude organic carbon.

Heritage Science, 2023 Phytoliths are silica bodies formed in living plant tissues, and they can be reliable indicators of their parent plants when they demonstrate characteristic phytolith morphology. As shown by the growing case studies around the globe, phytolith morphology

Aggregation reduces the release of bioavailable silicon from allophane and phytolith
Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 2022 Phytoliths form in plant tissues as fine, silt-sized amorphous silica particles. Once deposited in soils by plant debris, they can dissolve and feed silicon (Si) fluxes to the biosphere and hydrosphere, enhancing the positive effects of Si on plant ...
