Evaluation of Seed Priming on Growth of Chickpea (Cicer arientinum L.)

The present experiment was conducted during Rabi 2019 at experimental field of Pulses Research unit, Dr. PDKV, Akola to assess the suitable priming treatment for chickpea crop (variety: JAKI-9218). laid out in randomize block design three replication. morpho-physiological traits viz. germination %, plant height, number branches, dry matter content, day required 50% flowering were taken.. i.e. % showed significant increased when seed carried with potassium nitrate 4 hours. numbers days recorded least GA3 Protein content also significantly higher Yield and yield attributes It is concluded that hours characters over control.
