| microbial-enhanced selenium and iron biofortification of wheat (triticum aestivum l.)--applications in phytoremediation and biofortification. | selenium (se) is an essential trace element for humans and other mammals. most dietary se is derived from crops. to develop a se biofortification strategy for wheat, the effect of selenate fertilization and bacterial inoculation on se uptake and plant growth was investigated. yam2, a bacterium with 99% similarity to bacillus pichinotyi, showed many plant growth promoting characteristics. inoculation with yam2 enhanced wheat growth, both in the presence and absence of selenate: yam2-inoculated pl ... | 2015 | 25409246 |
