Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Grain from 2010/2011 accumulated more total selenium than grain from 2011/2012.
- Intervention effect Plants took up sodium selenate more effectively than sodium selenite.
- Association Grain selenium concentration had a strong linear relationship with selenate rate.
- Association Grain selenium concentration had a strong linear relationship with selenite rate.
- Intervention effect Each gram of selenium applied as sodium selenate increased grain selenium by 44 μg/kg dry weight.
- Intervention effect Each gram of selenium applied as sodium selenite increased grain selenium by 9 μg/kg dry weight.
- Recommendation The authors recommend two-rowed barley for Mediterranean biofortification programs.
