Seed priming to alleviate salinity stress in germinating seeds. (2016, unknown): “These enzymes are essential in the breakdown of macromolecules for the development and growth of the embryo that ultimately result in early and higher seedling emergence (Farooq et al., 2006; Varier et al., 2010).”
Pseudomonas-aided zinc application improves the productivity and biofortification of bread wheat (2018, background): “In seed priming, seeds are soaked in an aerated, aqueous solution of nutrients for a certain time and then dried back to the initial weight (Farooq et al. 2006).”
Seed Priming: New Comprehensive Approaches for an Old Empirical Technique (2016, background): “Faster and uniform rice (Oryza sativa) seed germination due to priming was related to im‐ proved activity of α-amylase, resulting in increased level of soluble sugars in primed kernels [168].”
Micronutrient application through seed treatments - a review (2012, background): “Such seeds germinate faster than non-primed seeds (Farooq et al., 2006, 2009).”
Improving the performance of transplanted rice by seed priming (2007, unknown): “The ratio of seed weight to solution volume was 1:5 (Farooq et al. 2006b).”
Advances in Drought Resistance of Rice (2009, background): “In rice, primed seeds usually exhibit increased germination rates, germination uniformity, and total germination percentages (Farooq et al., 2006a–f, 2009h) which have been attributed to metabolic repair during imbibition (Farooq et al., 2006a), a buildup of germination-promoting metabolites…”
