Abstract

To elucidate the relationship between agronomic traits and Se/Cd contents of rapeseeds, we conducted randomized block tests with 6 varieties of rapeseed (30 g/hm2 foliar Se fertilizer). With the response relationship between agronomic traits and Se fertilizer of rapeseed as a template, the effects of foliar Se fertilization on the primary branch number, secondary branch number, rapeseed yield, rapeseed Se content, and grain Cd content were analyzed to find out the differences among cultivars in response to Se application. This study was aimed to actively promote the search for Se-sensitive rape, screen Se advantage in the future, and provide reference for rational and effective use of Se resources into rapeseed varieties. Least significant difference analysis of variance model was used to scrape out the average Se content of 518 seeds of Deye Oil 0.248 mg/kg, The potential for Se enrichment was strong, and it was expected to become a typical variety of Cd-tolerant rapeseeds. Seeds of Huayouza 9 made maximum use of exogenous Se under relatively low Se content (0.298 mg/kg). The soil Se content was lower for the main varieties of planted areas. The Cd accumulation of Huiyouzaoxian 6815 was weak and did not change much when the leaves were sprayed with 30 g/hm2 Se, which could be used as a favorable material for Se-rich and low-Cd production.
