Seed priming with nano-silica effectively ameliorates chromium toxicity in Brassica napus.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2023
Plant yield is severely hampered by chromium (Cr) toxicity, affirming the urgent need to develop strategies to suppress its phyto-accumulation. Silicon dioxide nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) have emerged as a provider of sustainable crop production and ...

Seed Priming with Reactive Oxygen Species-Generating Nanoparticles Enhanced Maize Tolerance to Multiple Abiotic Stresses.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2023
Climate change-induced extreme weather events (heat, cold, drought, and flooding) will severely affect crop production. Increasing the resilience of crops to fluctuating environmental conditions is critically important. Here, we report that nanomaterials

Seed priming can enhance and retain stress tolerance in ensuing generations by inducing epigenetic changes and trans-generational memory.

Physiologia Plantarum : An International Journal for Plant Biology, 2023
The significance of priming in enhancing abiotic stress tolerance is well-established in several important crops. Priming positively impacts plant growth and improves stress tolerance at multiple developmental stages, and seed priming is one of the most ...

Seed Priming as an Effective Technique for Enhancing Salinity Tolerance in Plants: Mechanistic Insights and Prospects for Saline Agriculture with a Special Emphasis on Halophytes

Seeds
Seed priming is a simple, inexpensive, and effective pre-sowing technique that enables plants to better tolerate abiotic stresses, including high soil salinity, which is a major limiting factor in the establishment of halophytes for saline agriculture ...

Methods of Seed Priming

2019
The food security of world population depends on our limited agricultural land and the reproductive capacity of field crops. Hence, plant scientist are putting their efforts to increase the crop yield by using the existing resources. Seed priming is a very promising, efficient, and low-cost approach to increase the germination, the growth, as well as ...
