- Plant drought stress: effects, mechanisms and management (2011, unknown): “Seed priming is a technique by which seeds are partially hydrated to a point where germination-related metabolic processes begin but radicle emergence does not occur (Farooq et al., 2006).”
- Seed Priming: New Comprehensive Approaches for an Old Empirical Technique (2016, background): “glucose, fructose, sucrose) during priming was noticed in several species and was shown to improve seed germination under subsequent water stress [3, 21, 133, 134].”
- Hydro-priming Effects on Seed Germination and Field Performance of Faba Bean in Spring Sowing (2019, background): “Establishment rate affects crop density and competitiveness of the crop stand [4], tillering or branching [5], and yield [6] and thus is of great importance.”
- Crop Production under Drought and Heat Stress: Plant Responses and Management Options (2017, background): “A very important and short-term approach in this regard is seed priming which is a pre-sowing hydration of the seed in such a way that the germination metabolism is initiated but the emergence of radicle is avoided (Farooq et al., 2006).”
- 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…”
- Chemical priming with urea and KNO3 enhances maize hybrids (Zea mays L.) seed viability under abiotic stress (2011, background): “One pragmatic approach to increase crop production is seed invigoration (Basra et al. 2004; Farooq et al. 2006; Lee and Kim 2000).”
