Key Factors Influencing Selenite Uptake in Rice Seedlings

摘要：

Selenium (Se) has been recognized as an essential trace element for human beings and plays a number of functions important to human health.Selenium concentration in brown rice grains is generally low as compared to other crop foods.Selenium fortification through the staple food,rice,is considered a promising way to enhance human Se intake. Although foliar spray of Na-2Se0_3 can effectively increase Se concentration in brown rice grains (Cao et al.,2001;Hu et al.,2002),long-term sprays may result in environmental pollution. An alternative strategy would be to select and breed rice cultivars with efficient Se uptake.
