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 ...

Production, Composition, and Ecological Function of Sweet-Basil-Seed Mucilage during Hydration

Horticulturae, 2022
The sweet-basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) fruit/pericarp produces mucilage that engulfs the fruit and seed within minutes of hydration. Seed mucilage is produced by plant species that have adapted to arid, sandy soils.

Germination and Growth Performance of Water-Saving and Drought-Resistant Rice Enhanced by Seed Treatment with Wood Vinegar and Biochar under Dry Direct-Seeded System

Agronomy, 2022
Dry direct-seeded rice (dry-DSR) is an efficient, resource-saving and environmentally friendly cropping system. The employment of water-saving and drought-resistant rice (WDR) for dry direct-seeding can better meet the needs of dry-direct seeding systems.

Effects of Planting Pre-Germinated Buds on Stand Establishment in Sugarcane

Agronomy, 2023
Sugarcane (a complex hybrid of Saccharum spp.) is propagated vegetatively by using stem pieces of mature cane with healthy buds. Abiotic and biotic stress may cause pre-germination of these buds, which may have an impact on both emergence and plant cane ...
