Seed priming to alleviate salinity stress in germinating seeds. (2016, unknown): “Such treatments result in more rapid and uniform germination and seedling emergence (Korkmaz, 2005; Sivritepe et al., 2005; Farooq et al., 2007; Gupta et al., 2008; Dursun and Ekinci, 2010; Sharma et al., 2014) and can improve crop establishment under stressful conditions (McDonald, 2000; Ashraf and”
Pretreatment of seed with H2O2 enhances drought tolerance of wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings (2009, background): “Priming is a controlled hydration process followed by redrying that allows metabolic activities to proceed before radical protrusion (Sivritepe et al., 2003, 2005).”
Overcoming Salinity Barriers to Crop Production Using Traditional Methods (2013, background): “Sivritepe et al. (2005) reported that priming of melon seeds in 18 dS m−1 NaCl solution for 3 days at 20oC decreases the negative effects of irrigation with saline water in the range of 4.5 to 18.0 dS m−1 on stomatal conductance, chlorophyll content and growth of the mature melon plants.”
