Intervention effect Selenium fertilisation significantly increased the selenium content in the grain of spelt wheat.
Intervention effect Selenium fertilisation significantly increased the selenium content in the grain of common wheat.
Intervention effect The concentration of selenium in wheat was also influenced by the timing of selenium application.
Intervention effect The dose of selenium and the timing of its application were not associated with significant changes in the content of both forms of sulphur in the tested plants.
Intervention effect The experimental factors used did not lead to selenium levels toxic to humans and animals.
Intervention effect Sulphur presence in the growth environment increased total sulphur, sulphate sulphur and organic sulphur contents in spelt wheat grain and straw.
Intervention effect Sulphur presence in the growth environment increased total sulphur, sulphate sulphur and organic sulphur contents in common wheat grain and straw.
Intervention effect Sulphur presence increased total sulphur content of spelt wheat straw by an average of 17%.
Intervention effect Sulphur presence increased sulphate sulphur content of spelt wheat straw by an average of 29%.
Intervention effect Sulphur presence increased organic sulphur content of spelt wheat straw by an average of 23%.
Intervention effect Sulphur presence increased total sulphur content of common wheat straw by 26%.
Intervention effect Sulphur presence increased sulphate sulphur content of common wheat straw by 18%.
Intervention effect Sulphur presence increased organic sulphur content of common wheat straw by 57%.
Intervention effect The sulphur content in the plant growth environment was not associated with a change in the selenium content in the grain of the tested plants.
Recommendation The authors conclude that biofortification of wheat with selenium and sulphur is a good method of supplementing deficiencies of this element in the human diet.
