Negative priming is a commonly observed after-effect in studies concerning inhibition. Effects of the preceding trial are also found in other paradigms, like the stop signal paradigm. In the present study, stop signals were introduced in a negative priming paradigm and the relation between stop signal inhibition and negative priming was investigated. In Experiment 1, we used a simple stop signa...

The implications of priming experiments for a structural theory of the mental lexicon depend critically on the development of an adequate theory of the mechanics of priming. Masked priming techniques may simplify this task, since consciously perceived relationships play no role in masked priming. The implications of adopting an activation-based approach to morphological priming is discussed, an...

Soil alkalinity is a severe threat to crop production globally as it markedly retards plant growth. Different techniques are used mitigate alkaline stress, but priming considered the most appropriate. The current study was carried out in complete randomized design (CRD) evaluate effect of different on maize grown under levels stress. experiment comprised treatments stress (AS) including, contro...

to evaluate effected of supplemental irrigation and seed priming on yield and some quantity and quality characteristics of  vetch (vicia dasycarpa) rainfed maragheh cultivar, an experiment was carried out at the research farm of faculty agriculture of urmia university, west azarbaijan province, iran, during 2011. the experimental design was split-plot, laid out in randomized complete block with...

welsh onion (allium fistulosum l.) is one of the important vegetable crops in china. however, the seeds of this crop are short-lived and their vitality tends to be easily lost in the course of storage. the present study was conducted to elucidate the effects of welsh onion seed priming with potassium nitrate (kno3) on seed vigor and on other such related mechanisms during twelve months of stora...

The growth and performance of cowpea seedlings are negatively impacted by climate change the subsequent occurrence drought stress. Osmotic stress leads to formation reactive oxygen species, causing membrane breakdown, impairs metabolic activities. harmful effects osmotic can be reduced using seed priming techniques. Seeds var. Anaswara were treated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) ?-amino butyric...
