to investigate the effect of on-farm seed priming and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in different amounts of phosphate fertilizer on emergence, yield and yield components of a semi-mid maturity corn hybrid (es-sensor), an experiment was conducted at the research station of agriculture college, bu-ali sina university in 2012 in a factorial randomized complete block design with three replications, ...

soil and water salinity in arid and semi-arid regions, is one of the most important stresses, can severely limit crop production. black cumin (nigella sativa l.) is annual important herbal plant in rununculaceae family that sense to salinity. this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the priming on seed germination of black cumin under saline stress. the experiment was carried out as ...

priming is one of the seed enhancement methods that might be resulted in increased seed performance (germination and emergence). the objective of this research was to evaluate effect of priming on seed emergence and yield under wide ranges sowing dates in cotton. treatments were combinations of 6 sowing dates and 2 seed treatments (control and primed seeds). hydropriming method was used; seeds ...

in order to study the effect of on-farm seed priming and two bio-fertilizers on emergence and yield characteristics of chickpea, a factorial experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design in hamedan with three replications in 2013. the factors consisted of phosphate fertilizer (0, 50 and 100 percent of recommended) bio-fertilizer (mycorrhizae, barvar2, both of them and no-applic...

augment of germination rate is important in seedling establishment and crop yield. a set of study in laboratory & field conditions at agronomy department of university of tehran was conducted during 2004-2005. in lab. experiment the effects of seed priming was evaluated on germination indices (germination percentage and rate) of chickpea genotypes in a factorial experiment of 4×3×2 arranged in ...

in order to evaluate the effect of priming on germination of black cumin under different levels of salinity, a factorial experiment on base of completely randomized design was conducted with three replications. the main factors consisted of five levels of priming (osmopraiming with kno3 (1 and 3%), salicylic acid (sa) (0.2 and 0.5 mm) and a hydropriming)) and four salinity levels (zero, 75, 125...
