Alleviation of Al Toxicity by Si Is Associated with the Formation of Al–Si Complexes in Root Tissues of Sorghum

Silicon is reported to reduce the toxic effects of Al on root elongation but the in planta mechanism by which this occurs remains unclear. Using seedlings of soybean (Glycine max) and sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), we examined the effect of up to 2 mM Si on root elongation rate (RER) in Al-toxic nutrien...
