Field experiments were conducted during 2017 and 2018 to evaluate the efficacy of herbicides NICOSULFURON and EPTC alone or in combination with seed priming on weed control and corn yield. NICOSULFURON (80 g a.i. ha‒1) was applied at four- to six-leaf stage of corn as post-emergence and EPTC (4920 g a.i. ha‒1) applied as pre-plant incorporation (PPI). Among the herbicide treatments, the lowest ...

Seed germination, emergence and crop growth are often constrained by multiple environmental stress under field condition limiting productivity. priming, a age old inexpensive technique, consisting of soaking seeds in priming agent prior to sowing, has been applied different crops conditions with varying degrees success. To understand the significance this potentially transformative agronomic st...

to evaluate the effects of seed priming with salicylic acid on quality and baking traits of wheat flour, cv. alvand, under different sowing dates, a factorial experiment was conducted on the basis of complete randomized block design. the factors were seed priming with salicylic acid (including untreated seeds or control treatment, 400, 800, 1200, 1600, 2000 and 2400 µm concentrations of salicyl...

effects of seed priming by salicylic acid on some morpho-physiologic characteristics and yield of cowpea (vigna unguiculata l.) cultivar “parastou” was investigated under water deficit. experiment was conducted as a split block design with 3 replications in 2008-2009 at research farm of zanjan university. factors were including drought stress as a main factor in 2 levels (irrigation, water defi...

Cadmium (Cd) is considered one of the most toxic heavy metals to living organisms, being very persistent in soil and non-biodegradable, thus posing a long-term hazard plants humans. In recent years, application different molecules at seed level, known as chemical priming, has been studied method improve stress tolerance plants. present study, we tested effect hydro-priming proline priming lettu...

Abstract We investigated L1 and L2 frequency effects in the sharing of syntax across languages (reflected cross-linguistic structural priming) using an artificial language (AL) paradigm. Ninety-six Dutch speakers learned AL with either a prepositional-object (PO) dative bias (PO datives appeared three times as often double-object [DO] datives) or DO (DOs POs). Priming was assessed from to (a st...

The optimal induction for older adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is unknown. Several anthracyclines have been proposed, but the data remain equivocal. Additionally, few prospective trials of priming with hematopoietic growth factors to cycle leukemia cells prior to induction chemotherapy have been conducted. Three hundred and sixtytwo older adults with previously untreated AML were rand...
