	Na (µmole kg⁻¹)
	Low Si		High Si
	No Na	With Na	No Na	With Na
Shoot	145 ± 37	2019 ± 571	131 ± 43	1299 ± 535
Root	341 ± 48	768 ± 147	347 ± 52	712 ± 112

Plants were grown in hydroponics for 30 d at low (0.07 mM) and high (1 mM) ambient Si, with (50 mM NaCl) or without (0 mM NaCl) salt stress. Table show means with standard deviations. N = 3
