Seed priming approaches for climate-resilient agriculture [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany
Abstract Extreme weather events linked with climate change are increasingly affecting global crop production, emphasizing the need to develop and optimize efficient and biosafe technologies with stress-alleviating effects. Seed priming, a pre-sowing treatment that improves seed performance under stress conditions, has emerged as a ...

On‐farm seed priming and fertilizer micro‐dosing: Agronomic and economic responses of maize in semi‐arid Ethiopia

Food and Energy Security, 2020
On‐farm seed priming has been reported to improve emergence, crop establishment, and yield besides improving economic benefits in dryland agriculture. These benefits can further be improved by fertilizer micro‐dosing.

Seed Priming with Mg(NO₃)₂ and ZnSO₄ Salts Triggers the Germination and Growth Attributes Synergistically in Wheat Varieties

Agronomy, 2021
An experiment was conducted in both laboratory (germinative attributes) and field conditions (growth attributes) with completely randomized design (CRD) and randomized block design, respectively, to view the responses of different priming treatments in ...

Seed priming with Mg(NO3)2 and ZnSO4 salts triggers physio-biochemical and antioxidant defense to induce water stress adaptation in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Plant Stress, 2021
Wheat is a widely grown cereal crop that provides >20% daily protein intake and calories worldwide. Drought stress drastically affects the crucial physiological (relative water content; RWC), biochemical (proline content), and molecular attributes in ...
