Abstract

DISTRIBUTION and Se content of soils have received much..attention mainly in countries where the role of Se in human and animal health has been widely recognized. The objective of this study is to assess soil properties which are most highly related to distribution and soil Se content in some different Egyptian locations. Twelve soil profiles from some different Egyptian areas (i.e., Matrouh, El-Arish, El-Hesynia Plain, El-Tina Plain, El-Mansoura, El-Gabal EL-Asfar, El-Fayoum and Toshki) were selected. Soil samples were collected from following depths 0-30, 30-60 and 60-90 cm. Data showed that total and available Se in soil were different depending on the soil location and also the soil characteristics. The obtained correlation between indigenous soil parameters and selenium concentration showed that soil parameters, e.g., clay, cation exchange capacity, pH and sulfur content, were the most effective on soil selenium content.
