- Intervention effect The 120 g ha−1 Se dose increased Se content in the leaves to 7.98.
- Intervention effect The 120 g ha−1 Se dose increased Se content in the grains to 2.27.
- Intervention effect The 38 g ha−1 Se dose increased total soluble sugar content by 50% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect The 38 g ha−1 Se dose increased reducing sugars by 17% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Se doses of 12, 68 and 120 g ha−1 significantly increased catalase activity.
- Intervention effect Se application increased carbohydrate and nutrient contents.
- Recommendation Wheat is a good species for agronomic selenium biofortification via soil application in tropical agroecosystems.
