Iodine is essential to human metabolism, being fundamental in the production of the thyroid hormones. The consumption of biofortified foods can contribute to the increase of its intake. The objective of this study was to increase the iodine concentration in lettuce, also evaluating its effects on plant growth and production. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, in a hydroponic system of aerated static solution. A completely randomized design was used, in a 2 x 5 factorial scheme (variety x iodine dose), with three repetitions. Two lettuce varieties were used, the iceberg lettuce and the crispy leaf lettuce, submitted to five doses of iodine (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 μmol L-1), having as source potassium iodide. At 40 days after transplantation, both cultivars were collected and evaluated for the weight of fresh and dry matter, iodine content and levels in the leaves and the root volume. With increased doses, the plants showed symptoms of phytotoxicity, resulting in lower productivity. However, all doses promoted elevations in the
total iodine levels of plants. Therefore, it is possible to increase the iodine content in lettuce leaves, being necessary to adjust the doses to be used.
