1. Phytomanagement of Soluble Selenium and Production of Biofuel and Biofortified New Products

In many areas of the western US, excessive concentrations of soluble selenium (Se) in the environment can cause Se toxicity to biological organisms. The use of green plants to manage the soluble Se content in soils by plant uptake and biological volatilization has been considered as a cost-effective strategy. Importantly, the development of economically feasible remediation systems will encourage more widespread implementation of an integrated phytomanagement technology. The objective of this... G.
