The effects of different priming treatments and priming durations on germination percentage at different temperatures in parsley seeds were studied. The seeds were treated for 2, 4, 6 and 8 days with the PEG 6000 (–0.5 MPa, –1.0 MPa and –1.5 MPa), KNO3 (0.30 mol/L and 0.35 mol/L), Mannitol (0.50 mol/L and 0.60 mol/L) and hydropriming (12h, 24h, 36h and 48h) and unprimed (control). Germination s...

Salvia hispanica L. is an alternative crop cultivated by farmers who want to diversify their production. However, this species sensitive salinity, which affects its germination negatively. Seed priming with different attenuators a technique potential mitigate the effects of salt stress. Thus, objective study was evaluate effect seed use on germination, growth, and organic solute accumulation S....

Moringa leaf extract is a biostimulant containing various phytohormones that can spur plant growth and development. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of as priming agent on germination performance shallot seeds. The experiment began with preparation, seed priming, testing. data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA, if there was significant effect, further tested BNJ test α = 0.05. proces...

Background: Salinity stress is one of the most severe problems in agriculture. Seed priming a technique that improves seed germination and growth under abiotic stress. The study was conducted to evaluate effects different agents on seedling Isabgol (Plantago ovata Forsk) Variety GI-3 salinity Methods: experiment with completely randomized design. factors examined include four types priming, con...

Generally, primed seeds produce larger and heavier plants than non-primed seeds. This may be simply due to rapid emergence and extension of leaf growth, or the influence of other physiological processes. The effect of seed pretreatment with salicylic acid (SA) on some physiological and photosynthetic characteristics of the safflower seedlings, cv. Goldasht, was examined under field condition. T...
