A study was conducted to further develop our understanding of antimony (Sb) uptake in plants. Unlike other metal(loid)s, such as silicon (Si), the mechanisms of Sb uptake are not well understood. However, SbIII is thought to enter the cell via aquaglyceroporins. We investigated if the channel protein Lsi1, which aids in Si uptake, also plays a role in Sb uptake. Seedlings of WT sorghum, with normal silicon accumulation, and its mutant (sblsi1), with low silicon accumulation, were grown in Hoagland solution for 22 days in the growth chamber under controlled conditions. Control, Sb (10 mg Sb L⁻¹), Si (1mM) and Sb + Si (10 mg Sb L⁻¹ + 1 mM Si) were the treatments. After 22 days, root and shoot biomass, the concentration of elements in root and shoot tissues, lipid peroxidation and ascorbate levels, and relative expression of Lsi1 were determined. When mutant plants were exposed to Sb, they showed almost no toxicity symptoms compared to WT plants, indicating that Sb was not toxic to mutant plants. On the other hand, WT plants had decreased root and shoot biomass, increased MDA content and increased Sb uptake compared to mutant plants. In the presence of Sb, we also found that SbLsi1 was downregulated in the roots of WT plants. The results of this experiment support the role of Lsi1 in Sb uptake in sorghum plants.
