Introduction
Selenium toxicity has been of concern to states in the Western
United States since the 1930s. Selenium deficiency has been of
nationwide concern for a number of years also. In Wyoming, both
toxic and deficient conditions have been identified. In 1987, a
Governor's Task Force was created to investigate the status of
selenium in Wyoming. In 1988, funding was made available from the
Wyoming Water Resources Center to acquire key literature on selenium
for the use of the Task Force. In order to facilitate the use of
the literature and assist selenium research in Wyoming, this
bibliography and index have been generated.
Subtopics within the index are cross referenced within main topic
categories. For example, listings for specific plant species are
also listed under "Plants". "Plants" listings are included in the
main topic "Soil and Plant Science". This bibliography does not
include all bibliographic references for selenium. Selected
references that apply to ongoing or needed research in Wyoming were
given preference.
