Exploring Flooding Challenges, Causes, and Mitigation Strategies in Rice

International Journal of Genomics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Flooding is a dominant constraint to rice production in lowland and floodplain ecosystems, where stress intensity, timing, and duration vary widely across agroecological zones. This review synthesizes current knowledge on flooding typologies affecting rice, including anaerobic germination failure, flash flooding, stagnant flooding, and deep‐water ...

Influence of Hydro‐ and Halopriming on Seed Germination Traits and Early Metabolic Profiles at the Two‐Leaf Stage in Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is a nutritionally important legume and a major dietary source of macro‐ and micronutrients for millions of people, particularly in developing regions. However, its early growth stages are highly vulnerable to abiotic and biotic stresses, often resulting in poor germination and seedling establishment.

Biosynthesized Silver Nanoparticles as a Nanofungicide Against Diverse Phytopathogenic Fungi

Journal of Nanotechnology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) employing biological resources has gained momentum in comparison with chemical synthesis, contributing significantly to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The important features of AgNP biosynthesis include renewability, biodegradability, biocompatibility, nontoxicity, lower cost, and dual

Hormonal and Hydropriming Methods Enhanced the Seedling Growth of Squash

Journal of Global Innovations in Agricultural Sciences
Seed priming is a crucial technique for enhancing the quality of planting materials, which in turn improves overall crop performance. The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of hydropriming and gibberellic acid (GA3) on the seedling growth of squash. Seed priming methods (hydropriming and GA3 at 25 and 50 ppm) were used. Seeds were primed for 4

Effect of Hydropriming and Osmopriming on Seedling Improvement of Two Rice Cultivars

علوم و فناوری بذر ایران, 2021
In order to investigate the effect of hydropriming and osmopriming on the characteristics of experimental rice seedlings, the treatment was performed in a completely randomized design in three replications.Treatments included two rice cultivars (Tarom and Shiroudi) and priming at five levels including calcium chloride and potassium chloride priming (Ψs

DNA Double Strand Break Repair Is Important for the Longevity of Primed Seeds

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 12, Page 8469-8482, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Germination of many crop species is improved by priming, which facilitates pre‐germinative metabolism through controlled hydration. However, priming is often associated with reduced seed longevity. Here, a screen of Arabidopsis thaliana DNA repair mutants identified dna ligase 6 and dna ligase 4 (lig6lig4) seeds as most sensitive to ageing of ...

Antimicrobial Peptides as Part of the Arsenal of Constitutive and Inducible Seed Defences in Tomato Seed Exudates Against Pathogens

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.
Tomato seeds possess genotype‐dependent constitutive and inducible antimicrobial defences, enhanced by elicitors like methyl‐jasmonate, including antimicrobial molecules, offering insights for improving seed protection strategies. ABSTRACT Seed immune responses are an underexplored area in host–pathogen interactions, leaving seed–pathogen interactions ...

Seed Priming in Legume Crops: Mechanisms, Applications and Future Directions for Enhanced Germination, Growth and Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Sustainable Agriculture: A Review

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 211, Issue 5, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Legume crops, essential for global agriculture due to their high nutritional value and nitrogen‐fixing ability, often face significant yield reductions from environmental stresses like salinity, drought and extreme temperatures. Seed priming has emerged as a promising pre‐sowing strategy to improve seed vigour, stress tolerance and overall ...
