Selenium (Se) is a micronutrient for humans, and its deficiency is related to various
diseases. Recent studies have proposed strategies to increase Se intake, especially using …

Using plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) to boost Se uptake and accumulation in
crops is a promising recent approach to biofortification. Most studies, however, have focused …

Nanomaterials (NMs) have shown relevant impacts in crop protection, improvement of
yields, and minimizing collateral side effects of fertilizer and pesticides in vegetable and fruit …

Given that an effective combined foliar application of iodine (I), selenium (Se), and zinc (Zn)
would be farmer friendly, compared to a separate spray of each micronutrient, for the …

Soybean is a major crop in Brazil and is usually grown in oxidic soils that need high rates of
phosphate (P) fertilizers. Soybean is also very suitable for biofortification with Se, since its …

Selenium (Se) plays an important role in human physiological metabolism. Se-enriched
microorganism could be a remedy for Se-deficiency related diseases. Monascus are acid …

Since soybean is widely cultivated around the world and has a high protein content, it is a
great nutritional vehicle for increasing the dietary uptake of selenium (Se). Several studies …

Agronomic biofortification with selenium (Se) maybe employed to improve the nutritional
value of food crops while increasing the plant's tolerance to water deficit conditions …

Abstract Background In production, increasing Selenium (Se) level of rice grain could be
achieved by adding exogenous Se and selecting Se efficient rice cultivars. However, the …
