Selenium speciation in spider mites collected from Se-rich A. bisulcatus plants. X-ray analysis of near-edge spectra (XANES) revealed that two-spotted spider mites collected from Se-rich A. bisulcatus plants (shown in panel A) contained primarily methylselenocysteine (B, C). The XANES Se spectra of the spider mites and of the methylselenocysteine standard compound are shown in panel C.
