Effect of selenium fertilization on the accumulation of cadmium and lead in rice plants

Abstract: Background and Aims The accumulation of cadmium and lead in rice (Oryza sativa L.) grains is a potential threat to human health. In this study, the effect of selenium fertilization on the uptake and translocation of cadmium and lead in rice plants was investigated. Methods Rice plants were cultivated using cadmium and lead contaminated soils with selenium addition at three concentrations (0, 0.5 and 1 mg kg −1 ). At maturity, plants were harvested, and element concentrations in rice tissues were analyzed by us… Show more

“…This hypothesis is supported by the work of Li et al (2012) who showed that pre-treatment with the Ca 2+ channel blockers LaCl 3 and verapamil significantly reduced Cd 2+ influx into roots. Although selenium would not be expected to compete with Cd for uptake in the same manner as cationic metals, Hu et al (2014) similarly reported reduced uptake (44 %) of Cd by Oryza sativa in the presence of selenium.…”

“…The complex is difficult to metabolize or translocate to aerial parts of plants [44]. An antagonism effect was also observed between Cd, Pb, and Se in a pot experiment, where Se application significantly decreased Cd and Pb concentrations in rice tissues [45]. Feng et al [7] discovered that the contents of nutrient elements such as Ca, Mg, K, Fe, Mn, and Cu were all restrained by Se in spite of its beneficial role for plant growth, which is in accordance with this study.…”

“…Selenium (Se), a nonessential element for plant growth, can also alleviate heavy metal (Cd, Pb, Hg) toxicity to plants possibly through forming Se-metal complexes (Sasakura and T. Suzuki, 1998;Belzile et al, 2006;Fargasova et al, 2006;Hu et al, 2014b). Most studies focus on the role of Se in decreasing translocation and uptake of heavy metals in plants, but little information has been obtained on Se effect on phytoremediation in heavy metals in macrophytes.…”
