Journal ArticleDOI

Silica nanoparticles alleviate cadmium toxicity in rice cells: Mechanisms and size effects.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the presence of SiNPs increased at least 1.87-fold the Si uptake capacity and inhibited the Cd uptake capacity, which together resulted in the alleviation of the toxicity of Cd in rice.
Journal ArticleDOI

The availabilities of arsenic and cadmium in rice paddy fields from a mining area: The role of soil extractable and plant silicon.

TL;DR: Overall, Si exhibited its unique role in mitigating As or Cd stress in rice, and the study results provide strong field evidence for this role.
Journal ArticleDOI

A transcriptomic (RNA-seq) analysis of genes responsive to both cadmium and arsenic stress in rice root.

TL;DR: A novel set of genes in rice which responded to both Cd and As3+ stress may be of value in mitigating the toxicity of co-contaminated soils and may be used in the genetic improvement of rice varieties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative physiological and transcriptomic analyses illuminate common mechanisms by which silicon alleviates cadmium and arsenic toxicity in rice seedlings.

TL;DR: The transcriptomes of the Cd- and As-stressed rice roots were similarly and profoundly reshaped by Si application, suggesting that Si may play a fundamental, active role in plant defense against heavy metal/loid stresses by modulating whole genome expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of gene expression associated with arsenic uptake and transport in rice during the whole growth period

TL;DR: The jointing stage is the key stage for the expression of arsenite-transporting genes in roots, and the heading to milky ripe stages are the key period for theexpression of arsenic-transport genes in shoots, both of which should be considered for regulation during safe rice production in arsenic-contaminated paddy soil.
