Transcriptomic analysis of Alfalfa response to low selenium concentration

We studied the application of transcriptome technology in alfalfa selenium (Se) treatment. Alfalfa had different states after different concentrations of Se treatment. It shows that lower concentration promoted growth and higher concentration produced toxicity. The positive regulatory effects of moderate Se (100 mg / kg) on alfalfa was determined through preliminary experiments, and the gene expression of Alfalfa under this treatment was further analyzed by transcriptome. The two treatments were control and 100 mg/kg selenium, with three repetitions at each treatments.
