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...

in order to study the effects of growth promoting bacteria (gpr) and mycorrhizal fungi on seedling emergence, establishment and growth of two ecotypes alfalfa under salinity stress condition, an experiment was conducted in greenhouse of college of agriculture and natural resources, university of tehran in summer 2011. the experiment was arranged as a factorial with three replications. experimen...

Seed priming, as a low-cost method, is a technique commonly used to increase germination percentage especially under unfavorable conditions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of bio-priming on the germination of canola (Brassica napus L.) seeds under saline (NaCl) conditions. Seeds of canola var. Hyola 401 were inoculated with plant growth-promoting microorganism (PGPM) in...

Abiotic stresses spot lights the field crops at all growth phases and results in significant yield losses important crops, endangering safety of world's food supply. Numerous physiological, biochemical, molecular tactics have been examined by crop researchers to battle drought stress/water limiting stress, but current environment, these measures are meager. It is so claimed that plants can be p...

Seed germination, emergence and crop growth are often constrained by multiple environmental stress under field condition limiting productivity. priming, a age old inexpensive technique, consisting of soaking seeds in priming agent prior to sowing, has been applied different crops conditions with varying degrees success. To understand the significance this potentially transformative agronomic st...

Current study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different seed priming and foliar spray micronutrients on bread wheat performance in semi-arid region Northwest Iran. Pre-sowing treatments were S1: no pre-sowing treatment (intact seeds), S2: hydro-priming, S3: bio-priming (seed inoculation with plant promoting rhizobacteria consortium: Azotobacter chroococcum + Azospirillum lipoferum), S4...

Food waste is a serious global issue, and one way to reduce the impact of food by composting. Sandwich compost type fermented created with microbial fermentation; meanwhile, composting leachate provides nutrients for plants. Studies have shown that seed germination may be enhanced when treated sandwich leachate. Furthermore, few studies been on used priming. The objective this study was determi...

in order to study of the effects of hydro-osmo priming, bio-priming (biological fertilizer (barvar-2) and inoculation with rhizobium japonicum bacteria) on growth & yield of dpx cultivar of soybean (glycine max l.), an experiment was carried out as factorial based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with 4 replications in agriculture research station of shahrood university of technolog...

A field experiment was conducted during post rainy seasons of 2015–16, 2016–17 and 2017–18 (December-March) at research farm Tamil Nadu Rice Research Institute, Aduthurai, to study the impact tillage practices adopted in rice (Oryza sativa L.) crop on succeeding blackgram (Vigna mungo grown as relay cropping. The treatment comprised 2 (puddled non-puddled), 3 seed priming methods (Bio-seed with...
