OSMOPRIMING INCREASE JUSSARA PALM SEED GERMINATION
Jussara palm (Euterpe edulis Mart.) is an economically significant palm due to the extraction of the palm heart and acai fruits. However, both extractions reduce the ability of the plant to recover in nature. Thus, it is essential to understand and improve the palm propagation methods.

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 ...

Effect of seed osmopriming on germination and
Seed priming (osmopriming) consists of imbibing seeds in an osmotic solution that allows pregerminative metabolism to proceed, but prevents radicle emergence. This treatment can increase rate, percentage and uniformity of germination or seedling emergence.

Abstract The rising frequency of extreme climate events requires sustainable strategies to secure food production. Environmental stress impacts seed germination and seedling development, posing a significant agricultural challenge. To address this, we developed and applied iron‐based nanoparticles (Bio‐NPs) synthesized through green biosynthesis from ...

Effect of Osmopriming of Boro Rice Seeds on Field Establishment of Seedlings
An experiment was conducted at the Seed Laboratory of the Department of Agronomy, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during the period from January to April 2012 to study the effect of osmopriming of Boro rice seed (cv. BRRI dhan29). Seeds were soaked in 1%, 3% and 5% solutions of ZnSO4, KCl and CaCl2 for 24 hours, respectively, with 30 ...

Seed companies and farmers prioritize seeds that exhibit strong crop performances. Among the major challenges in tomato seed production are poor germinability and disease‐related issues. Caution measures considered in hydropriming, a widely used seed priming method, effectively enhance seed vigor and germination.

Impact of Priming and Sprouting on the Quality and Functionality of Moringa oleifera Seed Flour
This study is aimed at investigating the impact of physical treatments (hydropriming, alkaline‐priming with 0.5% NaOH, and sprouting) as pretreatments to improve the quality of Moringa oleifera (MO) seed flour for potential use in food products. An in vitro procedure was conducted with steeping medium and sprouting as the experimental factors. Nutrient
