We investigated the mechanistic consequences of selenium (Se)-toxicity, and its possible
mitigation using salicylic acid (SA) in rice. In comparison with control, sodium selenate …

The present study investigated the phenotypical, physiological and biochemical changes of
rice plants exposed to high selenium (Se) concentrations to gain an insight into Se-induced …

Arsenic (As) contamination of rice is a major problem for South-East Asia. In the present
study, the effect of selenium (Se) on rice (Oryza sativa L.) plants exposed to As was studied …

Selenium (Se) is an essential microelement for humans and a beneficial element for plants.
Recently, biofortification with Se has emerged as a key strategy to increase crop Se content …

Selenium (Se) is a micronutrient for humans and other animals; however, it can cause
severe toxicity at high concentrations. Selenium and sulfur (S) present a strict relationship in …

Arsenic (As) contamination of paddy rice is a serious threat all over the world particularly in
South East Asia. Selenium (Se) plays important role in protection of plants against various …

Selenium (Se) at low concentration is considered benefit element to plants. The range
between optimal and toxic concentration of Se is narrow and varies among plant species …

Arsenic (As), a chronic poison and non-threshold carcinogen, is a food chain contaminant in
rice, posing yield losses as well as serious health risks. Selenium (Se), a trace element, is a …

Arsenic (As) is a toxic element with the potential to cause health effects in humans. Besides
rice is a source of both amino acids (AAs) and mineral nutrients, it is undesired source of As …

Selenium (Se) is yet to be confirmed as essential for plants, but it has proven to be an
essential trace element for humans and other animals. However, it is well documented that …
