This investigation aimed to study the effect of selenium (Se) levels (0, 20, 40, 80 and 160 ppm) as foliar spray on growth, yield, fruit quality, leaf mineral content and enzymes activity of Washington Navel orange trees. The obtained data showed that, selenium had a significant promotive effect on growth, yield, fruit quality, leaf mineral content and enzymes activity of Washington Navel orange trees.
