The effect of seed hydropriming on germination and seedling growth of maize (Zea mays L.) in controlled condition by احمد نظامی, حمیدرضا خزاعی, سیده ملیحه میرهاشمی, فاطمه حسن زاده اول

“…Priming decreased mean germination time (MGT) of primed seeds to control and also mean germination rate (MGR) of seeds increased significantly. Seeds that 3 hours dried back had the highest MGR. Radicle and plumule length and radicle and plumule dry weight of primed seeds was higher than the control.Although priming had positive effects on characteristics such as decrease in MGT, increase in MGR, in length and dry weight of radicle and plumule, none of priming treatments had significant effects on grown plant characteristics in glasshouse.…”
