Selenium (Se) is an important micronutrient which essential for most living organisms and occurs in both organic inorganic forms the water system, soils, biomass, atmosphere. In addition to being humans animals, Se beneficial plants mostly involved antioxidant activity/response, as well a growth promoter. deficiency diet global problem, levels soils generally reflect its presence food and, thus...

Micronutrient malnutrition, also called “hidden hunger”, caused by the deficiency of micronutrients in the diet, afflicts more than two billion people worldwide, especially women and preschool age children (Welch and Graham 2002; White and Broadley, 2009) in the developing countries who are largely dependent on staple food crops. The consequences, in terms of malnutrition and health, are devast...

Rice as the major staple food of the world although is high in calories but deficient in essential micronutrients. This deficiency can be tackled by biofortification of rice grains with enhanced micronutrient content. Field experiments were carried out across three locations involving 17 genotypes, with the objective of assessing the genotype × environment interaction for native soil micronutri...
