Transcriptome analysis in osmo-primed tomato seeds with enhanced longevity by heat shock treatment
(2020-08-19)
Seed priming is widely used in commercial seeds and its main function is to accelerate and synchronize seed germination. Undesirably, primed seeds show reduced longevity and treatments like heat shock have been shown to ...
Osmo-priming in tomato seeds down-regulates genes associated with stress response and leads to reduction in longevity
(2021-01-01)
Tomato seeds subjected to osmo-priming show fast and more uniform germination. However, osmo-priming reduces seed longevity, which is a complex seed physiological attribute influenced by several mechanisms, including ...
Seed priming with seaweed extract mitigate heat stress in spinach: effect on germination, seedling growth and antioxidant capacity
(Inst Agronomico, 2020-10-01)
Spinach seeds are sensitive to high temperatures during germination and plant growth. It is known that seed priming with water or with seaweed extract (SWE) may enhance germination and seedling growth. The objective of ...
Nanotechnology potential in seed priming for sustainable agriculture
(2021-02-01)
Our agriculture is threatened by climate change and the depletion of resources and biodiversity. A new agriculture revolution is needed in order to increase the production of crops and ensure the quality and safety of food, ...
Condicionamento fisiológico de sementes de soja, componentes de produção e produtividade
(2016-02-01)
The Soybean crop is extremely relevant to the Brazilian economy. Priming is a technique that allows improvement of seed quality, especially those of low vigor. Vigor is defined as the ability of the seed to perform adequately ...
Oxygen interacts with priming, moisture content and temperature to affect the longevity of lettuce and onion seeds
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2011)
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) and onion (Allium cepa L.) seeds have relatively short longevity during storage and their germination is sensitive to environmental stress. Seed priming (controlled hydration followed by drying) ...
PHYSIOLOGICAL QUALITY OF OSMOPRIMED EGGPLANT SEEDS
(UNIV FEDERAL LAVRAS-UFLALAVRAS, 2012)
Eggplant seeds germination can be slow and uneven, justifying the use of pre-germinative treatments to improve the performance of seed lots. One option of treatment is the controlled hydration of seeds by priming. In this ...
Priming protocols on Lactuca sativa seeds evaluated by image analysis
(Editora UFGD, 2013)
Seed priming improves endosperm weakening, germination, and subsequent seedling development of Solanum lycocarpum St. Hil
(2011-01-01)
Seed priming is a treatment to improve seed quality and plant growth upon germination and is applied widely to crop species to improve uniformity and yield. The present study aimed to establish a priming protocol for Solanum ...
The Effects of Priming and Ageing on Seed Vigour in Tomato
(Oxford University Press, 1989-05)
A comparison was made of the effects of seed priming or ageing treatments on the performance of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. UC204C) seeds according to a number of indices of seed vigour. A single lot of tomato ...
