Physiological Mechanisms Involved in Seed Priming

1989
The high degree of mechanisation in modern plant cultivation systems demands fast, uniform and complete germination. However, this agricultural demand is the extreme opposite of the evolutionary adaptations which wild species have made to ensure success in their natural environment.

Bio-priming of Seeds

2012
Bio-priming is a new technique of seed treatment that integrates biological (inoculation of seed with beneficial organism to protect seed) and physiological aspects (seed hydration) of disease control. It is recently used as an alternative method for controlling many seed- and soil-borne pathogens.

Effect of Seed Priming on Seed Dormancy and Vigor

2019
Seed dormancy is a prerequisite for preservation and cultivation of crops. The genetic characteristics of seeds and external environmental conditions combinedly influence the seed vigority. Therefore, seed dormancy and vigor can modify the growth, development, and yield capacity of both agronomic and horticultural crops.

Proteomics of Arabidopsis seed germination and priming.

2003
To better understand seed germination, a complex developmental process, we developed a proteome analysis of the model plant Arabidopsis for which complete genome sequence is now available. Among about 1,300 total seed proteins resolved in two-dimensional gels, changes in the abundance (up- and down-regulation) of 74 proteins were observed during ...

Induction of longevity in primed seeds

Seed Science Research, 1999
AbstractPriming of seeds is generally intended to reduce time to germination, often leading to improved emergence. However, as a negative side effect, priming reduces longevity of seeds. We studied the possibilities to obtain primed seeds with reduced time to germination but with longevity similar to that of untreated seeds.

The Relationship Between Seed Priming and Defense Priming

Plant, Cell & Environment
Summary statement The idea that “seed priming” and “defense priming” are associated concepts is gaining ground in scientific literature, despite the important differences that exist between these research topics. This opinion article outlines and discusses their points of convergence.

The priming of seeds: investigations into a method of priming large quantities of seeds using salt solutions

2009
Seed priming, which involves the hydration of seeds in an osmotic solution before sowing, produces seeds with improved germination performance. This study was aimed at optimizing the priming of tomato, carrot, onion and sorghum seeds by a method which could be readily scaled up for commercial use.

Nano-Priming as Seed Priming Technology for Sustainable Agriculture

Agriculture is threatened by climate change and by the depletion of resources and biodiversity. Exploring new farming methods is needed to increase crop production and ensure food quality and safety in a sustainable way. Nanotechnology is an emerging trend that contributes to sustaining agricultural production.
