Combined Silicon-Phosphorus Fertilization Affects the Biomass and Phytolith Stock of Rice Plants
Phytoliths are silica bodies formed in living plant tissues. Once deposited in soils through plant debris, they can readily dissolve and then increase the fluxes of silicon (Si) toward plants and/or watersheds. These fluxes enhance Si ecological services in agricultural and marine ecosystems through...
