Selenium engineered nanomaterials (Se ENMs)-enabled agriculture has developed rapidly, however, the roles of surface charge in the bioavailability and enrichment efficiency of Se ENMs are still unknown. Herein, various Se ENMs of homogenous size (40–60 nm) and different surface charges (3.2 ± 0.7, −29.0 ± 0.4, and 45.5 ± 1.3 mV) were prepared to explore the Se content and nutritional quality in Brassica chinensis L. The results demonstrated that soil application of various Se ENMs (0.05 mg kg⁻¹) displayed different bio-availabilities via modulating the secretion of root exudates (e.g., tartaric, malic, and citric acids), microbial community composition (e.g., Flavobacterium, Pseudomonas, Paracoccus, Bacillus and Rhizobium) and root cell wall. Negatively charged Se ENMs (Se (−)) showed the highest Se content in the shoot of B. chinensis (3.7-folds). Se (−) also significantly increased yield (156.9%) and improved nutritional quality (e.g., ascorbic acid, amino acids, flavonoids, fatty acids, and tricarboxylic acid) of B. chinensis. Moreover, after harvest, the Se (−) did not lead to significant change in Se residue in soil, but the amount of Se residue in soil was increased by 5.5% after applying the traditional Se fertilizer (selenite). Therefore, this study provides useful information for producing Se-fortified agricultural products, while minimizing environmental risk.
