Abstract:Selenium is an important indicator for the evaluation of tea quality. However, the relationship between selenium uptake by tea plants (Camellia sinensis) and soil properties, as well as selenium transport and distribution in a tea plantation soil–tea plant–tea infusion production system, remain unclear. In this study, 12 tea plantations situated in a typical selenium-rich area of China were selected, and the characteristics and crucial factors influencing the uptake and transport of selenium were analyzed usin… Show more
