[Availability Changes in Different Exogenous Selenium Fertilizers in Soil and Their Effects on Selenium Accumulation in Wheat].

In order to understand the differences in the uptake and accumulation of several common exogenous selenium fertilizers by crops, a wheat pot experiment was conducted to study the availability changes in different selenium fertilizers (potassium selenate, potassium selenite, EDTA-chelated selenium, selenium powder, fly ash, and selenium-enriched straw) in soil and their effects on wheat growth and selenium uptake and distribution. The results showed that the change in availability of different exogenous selenium types in soil was different. During the whole growth period of wheat, the soil available selenium proportion of selenate, selenite, and EDTA-chelated selenium treatment was significantly higher than that of the control (CK), respectively, but there was no significant difference between the other treatments and the CK treatment.

Differential responses of soil nematode community to pig manure application levels in Ferric Acrisols.

Excessive pig manure application probably degrades arable soil quality in some intensive pig farming areas. The responses of the nematode community to dosages of pig manure were investigated in Ferric Acrisols under 3-season peanut monoculture. Varying dosages of manure (1.
