In this study, the effect of seed priming using ascorbic acid (ASA) on three commercial wheat cultivars i.e., Punjab-2011, Faisalabad-2008, and Ujala-2016 under salinity stress in both homogenous heterogeneous environments has been investigated. It revealed that different levels have significantly reduced growth attributes like percent germination, germination index, radical & plumule length, v...

Seed germination is one of the basic and vital stages in plant life cycle which affected by many factors. Different techniques can be used to enhance crop yield like seed priming that considered as a physiological treatment improves performance provide faster synchronized The objective this study compare efficacy different methods on seeds hybrid maize (hybrid Tikrit variety) with tow durations...

Climate change in the form of drought will reduce agricultural production, so it is necessary to develop superior drought-tolerant varieties. The study aimed determine local upland rice cultivars at germination stage. From September December 2021, was carried out Seed Science and Technology Laboratory, Faculty Agriculture, Tadulako University, Palu, Center Sulawesi, Indonesia. A completely rand...

Salinity and heavy metal stresses are great hindrances to germination the early developmentof plants. Nickel (Ni) is an indispensable micronutrient for plants at low while toxic in highconcentrations. Citrullus colocynth L. a medicinal cucurbit weed desert agriculturalareas. Germination development of seedlings determine future plant. Thecontemporary target study appraise influence single combi...

The disrupted morphology of lenses in mouse models for cataracts precludes accurate in vitro assessment of lens growth by weight. To overcome this limitation, we developed morphometric methods to assess defects in eye lens growth and shape in mice expressing the alphaA-crystallin R49C (alphaA-R49C) mutation. Our morphometric methods determine quantitative shape and dry weight of the whole lens ...

to evaluate the influence of arbuscular mycorrhizal inoculation on growth, yield and minituber production of potato plantlets, a pot experiment was conducted using a factorial based on completely randomized design with four replications. the factors were mycorrizal inoculation (non-inoculated and inoculated with glomus mosseae, glomus etunicatum and mixed of them) and two potato cultivars (agri...

Poor seed germination obstructs the early and uniform seedling emergence at sub-optimal conditions which can be a major setback to spring cucumber growers. Different priming methods ought efficient solutions for problem. To standardize best method, an experiment was laid out in Completely randomized design Horticulture lab of IAAS, Lamjung Campus. The treatment consisted demineralized distilled...

this study was conducted for the first time in order to introduce the pioneer forest trees and medicinal sea-buckthorn (elaeagnus rhamnoides) and determine the characteristics of the species seeds from seven provenances, including iran, china and tibet in the laboratory. after site identification of the species, seeds were collected from the regions including alborz, mazandaran, eastern azerbai...
