TL;DR: The responses of chloroplast sub-compartment proteins, including those active in stomatal opening and closing, and leaf physiological responses at different light intensities, indicated induced growth enhancement upon illumination with blue LEDs.

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that tomato plants have a greater capacity for tolerating saline stress through the improvement of photosynthetic metabolism and chloroplast proteome expression after silicon supplementation, and silicon plays an important role in moderating damage to chloroplasts and their metabolism in saline environments.

TL;DR: The results illustrate that Si application induced resistance against salinity stress in C. annuum by regulating the physiology, antioxidant metabolism, and protein expression.

TL;DR: The observed responses to Si supply in salt stressed plants indicate that the Si has a substantial role in alleviating the salinity stress responses by improving the root proteome and activating important genes responsible for stress tolerance.

TL;DR: The potential role of Si in ameliorating salinity stress in crops and the possible mechanisms underlying Si-associated stress tolerance in plants are elucidated and the identification of gaps in the understanding of this process as a whole is underlined.
