Effect of seed priming on seed vigor and early seedling growth in maize under optimal and suboptimal temperature conditions [PDF]
Low temperature has a negative effect on germination parameters and early seedling growth. Seed priming is a beneficial pre-sowing treatment that partially hydrates the seeds to the point of germination process initiation, followed by drying which ...

Priming winter wheat seeds with the bacterial quorum sensing signal N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL) shows potential to improve plant growth and seed yield [PDF]
Several model plants are known to respond to bacterial quorum sensing molecules with altered root growth and gene expression patterns and induced resistance to plant pathogens.

Cryopreservation of primed tobacco seeds [PDF]
Abstract: Priming is a commercial technique used to increase the speed and uniformity of seed germination. However, the physiological quality of primed seeds is usually negatively affected during storage. Tobacco seeds of the cultivar BAT 2101 were used to investigate whether primed seeds could be cryopreserved.

Seed priming with selenium improves growth and yield of quinoa plants suffering drought
Drought stress is a worldwide threat to the productivity of crops, especially in arid and semi-arid zones of the world. In the present study, the effect of selenium (Se) seed priming on the yield of quinoa under normal and drought conditions was ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...
