Since plants are a major source of selenium for humans and animals, understanding selenium transport, toxicity, and metabolism in plants is an important topic of research. Selenium and sulfur are similar both p
caught our attention (Fig.1band Supplementary Table1). Although accounting for nearly 5% of allselD-overlapping genes, to the best of our knowledge, TIGR04348 has never been implicated in Se metabolism, nor has any member of its protein family been characterized. Furthermore...
Nano-selenium showed significant differences in the activities of key enzymes of nitrogen metabolism in alfalfa (p < 0.05) (Fig. 4). The activities of nitrite reductase (Nir), glutamate synthetase (GOGAT), and glutamine synthetase (GS) in the CK group tended to increase with time and we...
A proportion of body selenium is also present as low-molecular-weight species, some of which are derived from foods and some of which are products of metabolism [10]. Such species include methylselenocysteine and γ-glutamylmethylselenocysteine (found in some foods and in selenium yeast) [10–12...

The role of sucrose in delaying wilting and regulating water balance40 provides a physiological basis for understanding the interplay between carbohydrate metabolism and flower senescence. It is postulated that the inclusion of nanoparticles in vase solutions may modulate sugar translocation and utilization,...
