“…They reported a negative effect of selenite (IV) on activity of dehydrogenase and The same letter means a homogenous group in the columns for an enzyme (P < 0.05); DM -dry matter; TPF -triphenylformazan The same letter means a homogenous group in the columns for an enzyme (P < 0.05) nitrate reductase. According to Hu et al (2013) catalase activity was inhibited in soil treated with selenium, while Nowak et al (2004) showed that selenium in low doses increased in catalase activity. In our study, catalase activity was increased from day 14 to day 112 after the treatment with selenite (IV).…”

“…Higher plants do not appear to require Se, they readily take it up from their environment and incorporate it into organic compounds using S assimilation enzymes (Pilon-Smith and Quinn 2010). However many researchers showed a positive effect of Se in detoxication of reactive oxygen species and its positive impact on antioxidant enzymes in different plant species (Nowak et al 2004, Cartes et al 2011, Hermosillo-Cereceres et al 2014.…”

This paper assesses the impact of spent engine oil on activity of dehydrogenase, nitrate reductase, catalase and o-diphenol oxidase in sandy soil, and evaluates biostimulation with selenates in the restoration of homeostasis of soil with spent engine oil. The experiment was carried out on loamy sand samples with organic carbon content of 8.71 g/kg, with the following variable factors: dose of spent engine oil: 0, 2, 10, 50 g/kg dry matter (DM) of soil; selenate application: without selenate, selenite (IV) and selenate (VI) in the amount of 0.05 mmol/kg DM of soil; day of experiment: 1, 7, 14, 28, 56, 112. Obtained results showed that spent engine oil increased activity of dehydrogenase and catalase. Application of selenite (IV) and selenate (VI) to soil non-contaminated with spent engine oil stimulated activity of dehydrogenase and nitrate reductase and inhibited in o-diphenol oxidase. Among selenates tested regarding biostimulation of oxidoreductases in soil contained spent engine, selenate (VI) is more useful than selenite (IV).

“…It was worth to determine the amount of beneficial elements such as Se and Si among the oligoelements in the texted products. Selenium can have a growth-promoting effect for many plant species (Pilon-Smits et al, 2009), for example by increasing N reductase activity (Nowak et al, 2004). It naturally occurs as trace element in most soils, at typical levels below 1 mg kg −1 (Pilon-Smits et al, 2009).…”

Highlights•Fermented organic materials and their hydrolysates were tested on substrate-grown Hibiscus.•Positive effects were observed on total biomass, plant height, SPAD index and net photosynthesis compared with untreated plants.•Tested products performed at the same level of a commercial product.•Obtained results represent a step forward for the application of biowaste hydrolysates in intensive substrate cultures. AbstractTwo urban biowaste materials, fermented under anaerobic and aerobic conditions, their soluble and insoluble alkaline hydrolysates, and a commercial biostimulant product, were compared for their capacity to boost Hibiscus crop production and quality. Plants were grown in 4-litre pots, containing peat and pumice as substrate, under optimal growing conditions. A randomized-block experimental design was adopted. Two types (main factors of variability) of treatments were applied, i.e. by blending the above products with the substrate at transplant, and by fertigation using the soluble hydrolysates only. Plant biomass characteristics and ecophysiological parameters were measured. Mean effect of factors and their interactions were assessed by two-way ANOVA. Principal component analysis was performed by using the different dependent variables to summarize the most relevant differences among treatments. Compared with the control (untreated plants), the applied treatments enhanced most of the investigated parameters. The most valuable effects were observed for total biomass accumulation (+25%), plant height (+10%), leaf chlorophyll SPAD index (+15%) and net photosynthesis (+24%). The hydrolysates performed better than the pristine materials. The former ones were comparable to the commercial biostimulant. The results confirmed the hypothesis that biowaste derived products induce biostimulant activity on Hibiscus; their application can improve cultivation sustainability. ); SD, soluble digestate hydrolysate obtained from the alkaline hydrolysis of D; SGC, soluble compost hydrolysate obtained from the alkaline hydrolysis of GC; SUB, treatments applied to the substrate as a powder blended with the substrate; T 1 , beginning of the experimentation (30 days after transplant) (day)

“…Se has been recognized as an integral component of different enzymes, such as glutathione peroxidase and thioredoxin reductase (Birringer et al, 2002). Chemically it is similar to sulphur (S), leading to nonspecific replacement of S by Se in proteins and other sulphur components (Nowak et al, 2004). This results in non-functional proteins and enzymes.…”

Effect of selenium (Se) was studied in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) cv. Olna in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Se was added to plants as foliary spraying. Quantum yield of photosystem II (PSII) and respiratory potential measured as ETS activity of mitochondria were measured two times in the growing season. Respiratory potential was higher in young plants compared to mature plants. Se induced the lowering of respiratory potential. Addition of Se had no effect on quantum yield of photosystem II.
