Silicon-Mediated Tolerance to Drought and Low-Temperature Stress, (Si) application can alleviate various abiotic stresses including drought and low temperature, suggesting its potential application in agricultural practices in these adverse soil and climate conditions. The mechanisms for Si-mediated increases of tolerance to drought and low-temperature stresses i

In this chapter, current knowledge concerning the roles Si may play under such abiotic stresses is overviewed. More recently, rapid progress has been made at both the physiological and molecular levels in dissecting the me

Silicon Sources for Agriculture, for agricultural use range from chemical products to natural minerals to by-products of steel and iron industries. All these products are shown to be effective in improving crop growth and yield. Slag-based silicate fertilizers are cost-effective, but more attention should be paid to their potentia

The readers should refer to the individual chapters for information on past, current and future research linking Si with soils, plants and fertilizers. In general, the chapters are closely connected thereby offering a comprehensive discussion ab

Silicon-Mediated Tolerance to Metal Toxicity,nvestigated, while over the last decade more work has been done on the Si-mediated alleviation of toxicity of the most important heavy metals, i.e. Cd, As, Cr and Pb. Nevertheless, direct evidence is still lacking that can clearly dissect the mechanisms involved in Si-mediated tolerance against metal toxicity, especially at the molecular level.
