ASSESSMENT OF SOME PRIMING TECHNIQUES IN MUNGBEAN (VIGNA RADIATA) : A GREEN HOUSE STUDY
... by traditional soaking (hydropriming), osmo-conditioning using phosphorous (KH PO ; 2 4 -1 200 mM and 400 mM), mannitol (20 and 40 gl ), polyethylene glycol (50 and -1 -1 100 gl ), sodium molybdate dihydrate (0.2 and 0.4 gl ) and hormonal priming by salicylic acid (10 and 20 ppm). Untreated dry seeds were used as control. All the invigoration treatments significantly improved plant vigor in terms of final germination biomass, root, shoot length and nutrient u...

...ing treatments including hydropriming, osmopriming (with 1, 0.1 and 0.01 mM B) using boric acid as a source of B. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with factorial arrangement in triplicate run. Results from the experiment revealed that all the seed treatments significantly improved achene yield, yield attributes and oil contents of sunflower. However, seed priming with 1 mM B solution was the best treatment in improving achene yie...

...eck the effectiveness of hydropriming (water; control), thiourea (150 mM) seed priming under normal (10.8 mM) and saline conditions (70 mM). The seeds of two varieties (TS-05 and TH-06) was sown at Botany Garden, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. Results showed that salinity decreases the growth (root and shoot parameters) impaired the balance between antioxidants (superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase) and oxidants (hydrogen peroxide and malondialde...
