Automation of Seed Priming Technology for Enhanced Seed Vigour of Blackgram Seeds [PDF]
Background: Seed priming technique involves soaking of seeds in priming agent to a point where germination related metabolic activities occur in the seeds followed by drying of imbibed seeds to original moisture to prevent the radical protrusion and facilitate storage of primed seed.
