Osmopriming Increases Seed Germination of Amaranthus cruentus (L.)

Seeds
Amaranth is considered a gluten-free, protein-rich pseudocereal. However, seed dormancy affects the germination rate and production. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of osmopriming, hydropriming, priming with Algal and chia-seed ...

Aquaporin expression during seed osmopriming and post-priming germination in spinach

Biologia Plantarum, 2013
Aquaporins (AQPs) are proteinaceous channels known to regulate transmembrane water transport, and therefore may be important component of imbibition during osmopriming and germination.

Combined and single osmopriming effects on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) performance

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica
Osmopriming has been shown to improve the germination and growth of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). This study explores the impact of various priming agent NaCl (3g l-1), proline (1 mM), ZnSO4 (1 mM), and their combination on wheat performance during

Osmopriming duration in Araçá-boi seeds germination

Agro@mbiente On-line, 2016
The Araca-boi is a native fruit of the Amazon region and its fruits have great potential for agro-industrial use due to the intrinsic characteristics of the pulp.

DNA Double Strand Break Repair Is Important for the Longevity of Primed Seeds. [PDF]

Plant Cell Environ
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 ...

SEED OSMOPRIMING WITH SALICYLIC ACID ON INDUCTION OF TOLERANCE OF Cenostigma pyramidale TO WATER DEFICIT

Revista Árvore
Cenostigma pyramidale is an endemic species of Brazil, widely spread in the Caatinga biome. The conditions in the semi-arid Northeastern region of Brazil can affect the development of plants due to the irregularity of rainfall, limiting the availability ...

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

Mol Plant Pathol
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 ...

Seeds of Change: exploring the transformative effects of seed priming in sustainable agriculture. [PDF]

Physiol Plant
Abstract The threats posed by climate change on agriculture at a global scale have fostered researchers to explore new and efficient strategies to ensure stable and safe food production. These new strategies must not only be efficient in reducing yield loss but also comply with environmental and consumer safety regulations, which particularly refer to ...

Combining Osmopriming and Biopriming [PDF]

HortScience, 1997
Osmopriming has been shown to enhance seed performance by increasing germination rates and uniformity. Furthermore, these enhancements persist under less-than-optimum conditions, such as salinity, reduced water availability, and excessively high or low temperatures.

Osmopriming in Seeds of Helianthus annuus L.

Journal of Agricultural Science, 2022
Osmoconditioning stands out as an alternative treatment that aims to improve seed performance in the field. The process consists of immersing the seed in an aqueous solution containing the osmotically active compound, and thus the process of imbibition begins, which stops as soon as they reach equilibrium with the solution’s osmotic potential,
