Beneficial elements for agricultural crops and their functional relevance in defence against stresses (2016, background): “In ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), 1 mg kg–1 Se (H2SeO4) added to soil was marginally toxic, while a similar level (0.8 mg L–1 Se as Na2SeO3) was more toxic in paddy-rice in a hydroponic system (Feng et al. 2013).”
Understanding selenium metabolism in plants and its role as a beneficial element (2019, background): “Selenium works as a stress modulator and inhibits the accumulation of ROS during stress by acting as a ROS quencher and as an antioxidant (Feng et al., 2013).”
Selenium in agriculture: a nutrient or contaminant for crops? (2014, background): “Many authors have also observed increase in the activity of SOD due to addition of Se, in the plants exposed to different types of stresses (Feng et al. 2013).”
Effects of selenium on the growth and photosynthetic characteristics of flue-cured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) (2015, background): “[2] have recently discovered that Se elicits protective effects on plants against abiotic stresses.”
