Silicon uptake and transport mechanisms in plants: processes, applications and challenges in sustainable plant management.
Review in Biologia futura, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Silicon (Si) is an abundant element in the earth's crust essential for plant growth and development. Recent studies silicon's potential for improving plant resilience to numerous biotic stressors, notably fungal diseases. This review seeks to offer a comprehensive understanding of the processes and advantages of silicon-induced systemic resistance in plants, with a special focus on its interactions with fungal pathogens. Furthermore, we investigate the effect of silicon on plant physiological and biochemical changes, such as enhanced lignification, strengthening of physical barriers, and activation of antioxidant systems. Additionally, we examine the influence of silicon on microbial populations within the rhizosphere and its effects on mycorrhizal associations. Lastly, we discuss the potential applications and challenges of integrating silicon-based strategies in sustainable plant disease management. This review provides valuable insights into using silicon as a novel approach to enhance plant systemic resistance against fungal pathogens, offering prospects for developing eco-friendly and efficient agricultural practices.
