title: [Selenium in mushrooms].
abstract: In the article are reviewed available data from the scientific literature on content as well as speciation of selenium in mainly edible mushrooms collected in Europe. Some species of the genus Albtrellus were found exceptionally rich in selenium, and relatively less are some representatives of the genus Boletus (especially Boletus eduilis), Macrolepiota, Agaricus or Ronmaria, while for many other is less than 1.0 mg/kg dry matters. Nevertheless, tha available database on selenium in higher edible mushrooms is not so great if considering the number of wild growing as well as cultivated species and their spread in space.
