Physiological quality of osmoprimed eggplant seeds

Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2012
Eggplant seeds germination can be slow and uneven, justifying the use of pre-germinative treatments to improve the performance of seed lots. One option of treatment is the controlled hydration of seeds by priming. In this way, this study aimed to evaluate the performance of eggplant seeds cv. Embu submitted to different methodologies of priming.

Physiological quality of osmoprimed Eremanthus erythropappus (D.C.) MacLeish seeds [PDF]

Scientific Electronic Archives, 2020
Physiological conditioning is a technique that consists in controlling the speed of water uptake by seeds, with osmotic solutions, aiming to improve their quality, reducing time and increasing germination rate. Eremanthus erythropappus (D.C.) MacLeish seeds were subjected to priming with polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG), potassium nitrate (KNO3) and the ...

Seed Priming Influence on Early Crop Growth, Phenological Development and Yield Performance of Linola (Linum usitatissimum L.)

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2014
Reduced early crop growth and limited branching are amongst yield limiting factors of linola. Field response of seed priming treatments viz. 50 mmol L−1 salicylic acid (SA), 2.2% CaCl2 and 3.3% moringa leaf extract (MLE) including untreated dry and ...

Germination and field emergence in osmotic and solid matrix priming in onion (Allium cepa)

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2014
Solid matrix priming for 24 hr significantly improved seed germination (81.6%) as compared to 12 hr, 36 hr or 48 hr duration. A priming duration of 24 hr gave maximum speed of germination (16.95) while priming duration of 48 hr gave minimum value for ...

Enhancing okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) growth performance through seed priming [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
Okra ( Abelmoschus esculentus), is a highly nutritious summer vegetable crop in Malaysia. The greatest challenge in growing okra is the okra seeds germinate slowly and unevenly, which leads to weak seedling growth and vigour.

Effect of osmopriming on rice seed germination and seedling growth

Journal of the Bangladesh Agricultural University, 2012
The experiment was conducted in the Agronomy Laboratory of Agrotechnology Discipline, Khulna University, Khulna from 29th August to 17th September, 2009. The experiment was laid out in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with two factors and three replications. The aim of the experiment was to study the efficacy of three osmopriming agents viz ., NaCl,
