Values are means (± SE) of four replicates. Significant differences (indicated by different lowercase letters) within a column are based on a one-way analysis of variance with least significant difference (p < 0.05). DW = dry weight. Se content in shoots = (Se content in stems × stem biomass + Se content in leaves × leaf biomass)/ shoot biomass
