Effect of Soil Water Contents on Arsenic Accumulation in Phytoliths of Pteris multifida and Phragmites australis

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The accumulation of metal(loid)s in phytoliths can physically immobilize the toxic materials and reduce toxicity in plant bodies and soil. Spider brake (Pteris multifida) is a well-known As hyperaccumulator that also harbors phytolith.

Phytolith-Occluded Carbon Sequestration Potential of Oil Palm Plantation in Tamil Nadu

open access: yesACS Omega, 2022
Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) has proven to be a phytolith-occluded carbon (PhytOC)-rich species that plays a vital role in acting as a carbon sink for reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration.

Specific PhytOC fractions in rice straw and consequent implications for potential of phytolith carbon sequestration in global paddy fields.

open access: yesScience of the Total Environment, 2022
Phytoliths are silica biomineralization products within plants and have been considered as a promising material to sequester carbon (C). However, there is considerable uncertainty and controversy regarding the C content in phytoliths due to the lack of ...

Phytolith profile of Acrachne racemosa (B. Heyne ex Roem. & Schult.) Ohwi (Cynodonteae, Chloridoideae, Poaceae).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Acrachne racemosa (B. Heyne. ex Roem. & Schult.) Ohwi of the subfamily Chloridoideae of the family Poaceae is an economically important grass species. Grasses are characterized by deposits of silica in the cells or tissues in the form of phytoliths which

Phytoliths from Woody Plants: A Review

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Phytoliths are efficient proxies in archaeology, plant taxonomy, palaeoenvironment, and palaeoecology reconstruction, the research of which has been developing rapidly in recent years. Phytolith morphology is the basis of phytolith research.

Phytolith Radiocarbon Dating: A Review of Previous Studies in China and the Current State of the Debate

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Phytolith radiocarbon dating can be traced back to the 1960s. However, its reliability has recently been called into question. Piperno summarized recent dating evidence, but most phytolith dating results from China were not included in the review because

Potential of global cropland phytolith carbon sink from optimization of cropping system and fertilization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The occlusion of carbon (C) by phytoliths, the recalcitrant silicified structures deposited within plant tissues, is an important persistent C sink mechanism for croplands and other grass-dominated ecosystems.

Phytolith reconstruction of early to mid-Holocene vegetation and climatic changes in the Lower Yangtze Valley

open access: yes, 2021
The Holocene variability of Poaceae (grasses) and their response to climate changes has not yet been investigated, despite their prevalence and biodiversity in the Lower Yangtze Valley.

Quantifiable differences between phytolith assemblages detected at species level: analysis of the leaves of nine Poa species (Poaceae)

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2015
The taxonomic value of phytolith assemblages and their degree of variability within different species of the same genus is still an undervalued issue in the botanical range of phytolith studies.
