Silicon Alters Leaf Surface Morphology and Suppresses Insect Herbivory in a Model Grass Species

Grasses accumulate large amounts of silicon (Si) which is deposited in trichomes, specialised silica cells and cell walls. This may increase leaf toughness and reduce cell rupture, palatability and digestion. Few studies have measured leaf mechanical traits in response to Si, thus the effect of Si o...
