Ana Paula Branco Corguinha,Guilherme Amaral de Souza,Veridiana Cardoso Gonçalves,Camila de Andrade Carvalho,Willian Eduardo Amaral de Lima,Fábio Aurélio Dias Martins,Celso Hideto Yamanaka,Eros Artur Bohac Francisco,Luiz Roberto Guimarães Guilherme +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the quality of Brazilian food products with respect to non-essential trace elements (TEs) in five major crops grown in Brazil: rice, wheat, corn, soybeans, and potatoes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selenium biofortification of wheat grain via foliar application and its effect on plant metabolism
Túlio Silva Lara,Josimar Henrique de Lima Lessa,Kamila Rezende Dázio de Souza,Ana Paula Branco Corguinha,Fábio Aurélio Dias Martins,Guilherme Carpena Lopes,Luiz Roberto Guimarães Guilherme +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, field trials were conducted to investigate the biofortification of selenium (Se) in wheat and also to assess the influence of foliar application of Se (as sodium selenate) on the metabolism of carbohydrates, nitrogen contents, and on the antioxidant system of the plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous Biofortification of Rice With Zinc, Iodine, Iron and Selenium Through Foliar Treatment of a Micronutrient Cocktail in Five Countries.
Chanakan Prom-u-thai,Abdul Rashid,Hari Ram,Chunqin Zou,Luiz Roberto Guimarães Guilherme,Ana Paula Branco Corguinha,Shiwei Guo,Charanjeet Kaur,Asif Naeem,Supapohn Yamuangmorn,Muhammad Ashraf,Virinder Singh Sohu,Yueqiang Zhang,Fábio Aurélio Dias Martins,Suchada Jumrus,Yusuf Tutus,Mustafa Atilla Yazici,Ismail Cakmak +17 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that irrespective of the rice cultivars used and the diverse soil conditions existing in five major rice-producing countries, the foliar application of the micronutrient cocktail solution was highly effective in increasing grain Zn, I and Se.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agronomic biofortification of rice ( Oryza sativa L.) with selenium and its effect on element distributions in biofortified grains
Josimar Henrique de Lima Lessa,Anderson Mendes Araujo,Liniker André Ferreira,Ediu Carlos da Silva Júnior,Cynthia de Oliveira,Ana Paula Branco Corguinha,Fábio Aurélio Dias Martins,Hudson Wallace Pereira de Carvalho,Luiz Roberto Guimarães Guilherme,Guilherme Carpena Lopes +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that soil application of 47 and 36 g ha−1 of Se (as sodium selenate) may guarantee the production of rice grains with adequate Se levels for human consumption in Brazil and worldwide, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cadmium in potato and soybeans: Do phosphate fertilization and soil management systems play a role?
Ana Paula Branco Corguinha,Veridiana Cardozo Gonçalves,Guilherme Amaral de Souza,Willian Eduardo Amaral de Lima,Evanise Silva Penido,Cesar Augusto Brasil Pereira Pinto,Eros Artur Bohac Francisco,Luiz Roberto Guimarães Guilherme +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the Cd contents in potato cultivars receiving up to 560 kilograms of P2O5-ha−1 and in soybeans cultivated under different management systems in soils with records of long-term applications of high doses of P fertilizers.
