Early establishment of shallot growth is important in order to ensure optimum yield. This study aimed evaluate the effect seed priming with moringa leaf extract (MLE) and application Tithonia compost on shallots. The research was conducted at experimental farm belonging Faculty Agriculture, Hasanuddin University, Makassar, from September December 2022. arranged a factorial design three replicat...

Winter savory (Satureja montana L.) is an important medicinal, aromatic, and honey plant. In Croatia, it widely distributed along the Adriatic coast, where frequently exposed to droughts. First, winter natural population with highest germination across different drought treatments after hydropriming was selected. Nine hundred seeds from each of three populations (P1, P2, P3) were hydroprimed (d...

introduction: b. campestris is an old plant that commonly grows in arid and semi-arid areas. it has mucilage in the epidermal cells of canola seeds, a considerable variation in growth form and characteristics across the many cultivars. these species have in general, a flat root without an elongated crown, with stems that typically grow 30 to 120 cm tall. the leaves are large, soft, smooth or so...

A field experiment was conducted during post rainy seasons of 2015–16, 2016–17 and 2017–18 (December-March) at research farm Tamil Nadu Rice Research Institute, Aduthurai, to study the impact tillage practices adopted in rice (Oryza sativa L.) crop on succeeding blackgram (Vigna mungo grown as relay cropping. The treatment comprised 2 (puddled non-puddled), 3 seed priming methods (Bio-seed with...

Presoaking seeds in water (hydropriming) or a solution, usually of polyethylene glycol (PEG) various salts at low potential (osmopriming), has been demonstrated to improve the germination numerous species including vegetables (carrot, celery, leek, lettuce, tomato), floral plants (cyclamen, primrose, pansy) and others (sugar beet, rape, soybean, sunflower). This treatment allows stricto sensu o...

The maintenance of seed quality during the long-term conservation plant genetic resources is crucial for averting projected food crises that are linked to changing climate and rising world population. However, ageing-induced loss vigour viability storage remains an inevitable process compromises productivity in several orthodox-seeded crop species. Seed ageing under prolonged storage, which can...
