Abstract
Under the conditions of application of selenium and sulfur fertilizers in potted plants, the effect of selenium and sulfur on the content of chlorophyll and day matter in alfalfa was studied. Test was done with single application of sulfur or selenium fertilizer and interaction of Se and S to find out the best fertilizing program and to provide a scientific method of fertilization to quality forage. The results showed that: When fertilized S was 80 mg·kg-1,the content of sulfur was the maximum in plant, but increasing the sulfur fertilizer application rate, sulfur content decreased. Sulfur level was 40 mg·kg-1,the accumulation of dry matter was maximum, the change of chlorophyll content in plants was not significantly with the effect of sulfur levels. Se dosage had no obvious effect on dry matter, but chlorophyll content in plant was increased with increasing selenium, chlorophyll content was the maximum in alfalfa with selenium content of 3.0 mg·kg-1. The interaction of selenium and sulfur showed that, excess or deficiency of sulfur level were both go against the accumulation of selenium in plants, when fertilizing the plants S 20 mg·kg-1 + Se 1.5 mg·kg-1, selenium content was the highest, with the increase of sulfur level, the accumulation of selenium decreased. Fertilization for S 40 mg·kg-1 + Se 1.5 mg·kg-1 dry matter accumulation was the maximum, its comprehensive performance was the best.
