the effect of seed priming on emergence and yield of cotton at different sowing dates

Authors
abstract

priming is one of the seed enhancement methods that might be resulted in increased seed performance (germination and emergence). the objective of this research was to evaluate effect of priming on seed emergence and yield under wide ranges sowing dates in cotton. treatments were combinations of 6 sowing dates and 2 seed treatments (control and primed seeds). hydropriming method was used; seeds of siokra 324 were moistened in water for 16 h at 25oc. results indicated that priming affects seed emergence components. primed seeds had faster and more uniform emergence at all sowing dates. priming also affected germination response to temperature; primed seeds “emerged” at lower base temperature. base temperature was 15.4oc for control seeds, but was 13.5oc for primed seeds. primed seeds had high yield than unprimed seeds (control) at all the sowing dates.

Different sowing dates affected cotton yield and yield components

This study was conducted to determine whether selecting an optimum sowing date couldimprove yield. The experiment consisted of sowing a film-covered, drip-irrigated cotton field onfour sowing dates from April to May in 2011-2012 at the Agrometeorological ExperimentalStation of Wulanwusu, which was in an arid region of north-western China. Late sowing datesproduced less yield and water-use effic...
