Effect of drought stress and selenium spraying on photosynthesis and antioxidant activity of spring barley (2013, background): “…media have shown enhanced resistance to certain abiotic stresses, e.g. drought (Kuznetsov et al., 2003; Germ et al., 2007; Yao et al., 2009), salinity (Kong et al., 2005; Djanaguiraman et al., 2005; Hawrylak-Nowak, 2009) and heavy metals (Srivastava et al., 2009; Cartes et al., 2010) stresses.”
Selenium in Plants (2017, background): “Many plant species show a positive growth response to Se, perhaps due to enhanced antioxidant capacity (Cartes et al. 2005; Djanaguiraman et al. 2005; Hartikainen 2005; Kong et al. 2005).”
Selenium in agriculture: a nutrient or contaminant for crops? (2014, background): “In sorrel (Oxalis corniculata), growing under salt stress in sand culture, selenium was able to improve upon the growth (Kong et al. 2005).”
Selenium improves photosynthesis and protects photosystem II in pear (Pyrus bretschneideri), grape (Vitis vinifera), and peach (Prunus persica) (2015, background): “…the activities of antioxidant enzymes, such as glutathione peroxidase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and peroxidase, which provide protection from environmental stress in crops (Xue et al. 2001, Kong et al. 2005, Chen et al. 2008, Vítová et al. 2011, Feng and Wei 2012).”
