摘要： Cadmium (Cd) pollution is an important threat to agricultural production globally. Silicon (Si) and silicon nanoparticles (Si NPs) can mitigate Cd stress in plants. However, the mechanisms underlying the impacts of Si and Si NPs on Cd resistance, particularly in low-Si accumulators, remain inadequately understood. Accordingly, we conducted a comparative investigation into the roles of Si and Si NPs in regulating the antioxidant system (enzymes and antioxidants) and Cd uptake (influx rate, symplastic and apoplastic pathways) in tomato (a typical low-Si accumulator). The results revealed that Si and Si NPs improved tomato growth under Cd stress, and principal component analysis (PCA) demonstrated that Si NPs were more effective than Si. For oxidative damage, redundancy analysis (RDA) results showed that Si NPs ameliorated oxidative damage in both shoots and roots, whereas Si predominantly alleviated oxidative damage in roots. Simultaneously, Si and Si NPs regulated anti-oxidant enzymes and nonenzymatic antioxidants with distinct targets and strengths. Furthermore, Si and Si NPs decreased Cd concentration in tomato shoot, root, and xylem sap, while Si NPs induced a more significant decline in shoot and xylem sap Cd. Noninvasive microtest and quantitative estimation of trisodium-8-hydroxy-1,3,6-pyrenetrisulfonic (PTS, an apoplastic tracer) showed that Si and Si NPs reduced the Cd influx rate and apo-plastic Cd uptake, while Si NPs induced a more significant reduction. Moreover, Si regulated the expression of genes responsible for Cd uptake (NRAMP2 and LCT1) and compartmentalization (HMA3), while Si NPs reduced the expression of NRAMP2. In conjunction with RDA, the results showed that Si and Si NPs decreased Cd uptake mainly by regulating the symplastic and apoplastic pathways, respectively. Overall, our results indicate that Si NPs is more effective in promoting tomato growth and alleviating oxidative damage than Si in tomato under Cd stress by modulating the antioxidant system and reducing apoplastic Cd uptake.
