The wide range of industrial applications of chromium (Cr) has led to an increasing risk of water contamination by Cr(Ⅵ). However, efficient methods to remove or decrease the toxicity of Cr(Ⅵ) in situ are lacking. The main aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms by which selenite alleviates chromium(Ⅵ)-induced toxicity in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Our results showed that K2Cr2O7 had toxic effects on both the structure and physiology of C. reinhardtii in a dose-dependent manner. Adding selenite significantly alleviated c
