Abstract: The effect of foliage dressing Sodium Selenite(Na2SeO3) at full heading stage on aroma,selenium content in brown rice and grain yield of aromatic rice were investigated to provide theoretical basis for suitable selenium fertilizer application rate in aromatic rice production.Pot experiments were conducted with two conventional aromatic rice cultivars Meixiangzhan and Nongxiang 18,using four selenium levels by Na2SeO3 0(Se0),10(Se1),20(Se2),30 mg/kg(Se3),the effects of different selenium levels on 2-Acetyl-1-Pyrroline(2-AP) content in brown rice,2-AP content in stem-sheath,2-AP content in leaves,2-AP content in grains,selenium content in brown rice,grain yield were evaluated.The result showed that the treatments Se1,Se2 were conducive to higher levels of 2-AP in brown rice,as Se1,Se2 improved 2-AP accumulation in stem-sheath,grains and leaves at 7 d after heading stage and 14 d after full heading stage.Compared with Se0,Se2 improved the 2-AP content in brown rice significantly for Meixiangzhan of late rice,with an increased of 85.03%,up to 35.73 ng/g.Se2 achieved the highest 2-AP content in brown rice for Nongxiang 18 of late rice,but the difference was not significant.For Meixiangzhan of early rice,the 2-AP content in brown rice of Se1 was significantly higher than other treatments.Compare with Se0 treatment,Se1,Se2,Se3 for Nongxiang 18 of early rice improved the 2-AP content in brown rice significantly.Foliage dressing Na2SeO3 at full heading stage had a significant increase on selenium content in brown rice.Foliage dressing Na2SeO3 at full heading stage harvested the same level of grain yield as Se0,except that compared with Se0,grain yield of Se3 for Nongxiang 18 of early rice had a significantly decrease.This is maybe due to that Se3 treatment kept the 1 000-grain-weight in a lower level,and other treatments kept the 1000-grain-weight and seed-setting in higher level.Under the experiment condition,taking into account of the reactions of two aromatic rice cultivars for selenium fertilizer,the suitable Na2SeO3 concentration of foliage dressing at full heading stage was 10-20 mg/kg.
