Abstract

Priming of seeds enhances the physiological quality through activation of the biochemical events, which advances seed germination processes without radical emergence, enabling rapid and uniform germination of seeds coupled with high vigour. This has helped the farmers to achieve better plant stand in the field that leads to uniform crop stand and improve rental lines.
