Other claims from this paper (3)
- Observation In E. arvense, silica is deposited primarily in discrete knobs and rosettes on the epidermal surface.
- Observation In E. aruense, silicon is not present in intercalary meristematic cells.
- Observation In E. aruense, mature epidermal cells above the intercalary meristem contain silicon in significant quantities.
