Genotypic and environmental effects on selenium concentration of broccoli heads grown without supplemental selenium fertilizer

2007-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Selenium (Se) is an important trace element in human nutrition that is essential to normal health. Broccoli is known to accumulate relatively high concentrations of Se, and there is strong evidence that consumption of Se-enriched broccoli florets decreases cancer risk. In light of the above, this study was conducted to evaluate differences in Se concentration per head and total Se head content for a collection of...
