Abstract:Field experiments were carried out to study the effects of different forms of foliar selenium fertilizers on the absorption and transportation of Se by rice. Compared with the control treatment, sodium selenite, sodium selenate, selenomethionine (SeMet), chemical nano-Se foliar applied once (15 g/hm2) at the flowering stage of rice increase Se contents of grain, husk and straw by 0.06-0.64, 0.36-0.83and 0.32-0.75 mg/kgrespectively. Grain Se recovery is in the order of SeMet (34.6%)> sodium selenite (15.7%)> sodium selenate (15.0%)> chemical nano-Se (6.6%); while Se distribution in rice is in the order of straw>grain>husk. Furthermore, Se content in rice grains is increased significantly with the increase of Se application dosage. When applied selenite of 6.01-10.62 g/hm2or humic acid+selenite (HA+Se) of 4.26-8.63 g/hm2, Se content in rice grains meets the standard first grade for Se-enriched rice proposed by Heilongjiang Province (0.20-0.30 mg/kg, DB23T 790—2004). Se biofortification efficiency of SeMet is greater than other three Se forms, and HA+Se is greater than selenite.
