Groundnut seed priming was performed with an aqueous solution of gibberellic acid (GA3) (0, 50, 100, and 150 ppm for 18h) and accelerated aging (96 h) was done prior to drought stress (-0.4, -0.6, and -0.8 MPa), then recovered. Investigated traits were germination percentage, mean germination time, germination rate, vigor index, plumule length, radicle length, seedling length, malondialdehyde c...

The genus AnthemisL. (Asteraceae) as medicinal plants are used both for pharmaceutical purposes and in folk medicine. In order to study of seed priming effects on seedling growth of two species of Anthemis spp., an factorial experiment based on randomized complete design with three replications was conducted under greenhouse conditions in Research Institute of Forests...

to investigate the effects of different hormonal treatments on the oocyte maturation in wild- caught grey mullet ( mugil cephalus ), fish were subjected to 4 different hormonal treatments as follows: (a) a control group received 0.5 ml/kg b.w. physiological saline, (b) fish injected with 20 mg/kg carp pituitary extract (cpe) as a priming dose followed by 200 µg/kg sgnrha as resolving dose, (c) ...

Effects of hormonal priming with abscisic acid (ABA), salicylic acid (SA), or ascorbic acid on wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. Auqab 2000) germination and seedling growth under normal (4 dS/ cm) and saline (15 dS/ cm) conditions were studied to determine their usefulness in increasing relative salt-tolerance. During germination test, most of treatments were effective in improving germination and s...

Abiotic stresses spot lights the field crops at all growth phases and results in significant yield losses important crops, endangering safety of world's food supply. Numerous physiological, biochemical, molecular tactics have been examined by crop researchers to battle drought stress/water limiting stress, but current environment, these measures are meager. It is so claimed that plants can be p...

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...

seeds of most crops including those of range plants follow orthodox behavior. however, these seeds undergo aging even under favorable conditions, so that decreased viability and vigor related parameters are the main characteristics of deteriorated seeds. the effects of hormonal priming with auxin, cytokinin, gibberellin and abscisic acid at 0, 50, 100 and 150 ppm on physiological quality of tal...

Priming tekniği, tohumun ekim öncesinde su veya düşük ozmotik potansiyele sahip çözelti içerisinde belirli bir süre ve sıcaklık altında bekletilerek tekrar kurutulması esasına dayanır. uygulanan tohumlar kurutulduktan sonra direk ekilebilir priming uygulamalarının pragmatik etkilerini kaybetmemek suretiyle sıcaklıklarda uzun depolanabilir. Genel olarak en çok kullanılan teknikleri hidro-priming...

A large body of research has documented the effect of seed priming ongermination, emergence and crop yield. In such research, seed priming has beenfound to have a positive, negative or no effect. Meta-analysis can help tosummarize and interpret a collection of experiments. The aim of this study was toconduct a meta-analysis to synthesize published data from studies addressing theeffect of seed ...
