background & aim: because of seed germination ability of medicinal plants seed is low and, generally exposed to problem. priming is one of the techniques that help seeds to be germinated faster and uniformly. experimental: a laboratory experiment was carried out on germination and growth improvement in heracleum persicum desf.  by seed osmo-primming in seed technology laboratory ...

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...

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...

Ageing induces seed deterioration expressed as the loss of seed vigor and/or viability. Priming treatment, which consists in soaking of seeds in a solution of low water potential, has been shown to reinvigorate aged seeds. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of naturally and accelerated aging on seed germination traits and enzyme activities (proxidase, catalase and superoxid dis...

The possible effects of seed priming on mitigating the effects of drought stress on germination and early seedling growth of two rangeland plants were evaluated in a laboratory research during 2015-16 growing season. The research was conducted as a 2×3×3 factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications. The first factor was plant type (Festuca ovina and Bromus ...

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...

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...
