Reviewer 2 Report

The authors examined the effect of N fertilization on uptake and concentration of Zn, Fe and Se in maize plants. They evalueted the effect of N and Zn application on: maize shoot dry matter yield; Zn, Fe and Se concentration and uptake in maize; and the relationship between the concentration of N and that of Zn and Fe in maize plants.

The work suggested that an optimum N fertilization of feed and food crops are required to contribute to better human and animal dietary intake of Zn and Fe.

The manuscript was well written. The introduction, materials and discussions are clear and satisfying. I recommend that the Editor should accept the manuscript in this form.

Best regards.
