Insufficient stand establishment at early growth stages in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) due to
drought stress is a major problem that limits overall efficiency and yield of crop. Priming of …

NaCl salinity stress consistantly decreased the rate of germination of wheat. GA alone or in
combination with kinetin alleviated the inhibitory effect of salinity on germination. However …

Seedlings establishment at early growth stages of crop plants is severely affected by soil
salinity. Therefore, high germination rate and vigorous early growth under salty soils is …

Poor seed germination and crop stand are major problems in saline areas. However, seed
vigour enhancement treatments might be able to alleviate the negative effects of salinity. The …

The present research experiment was conducted in the greenhouse of the Institute of
Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, The University of Lahore for determining the possible …

Seed priming is a simple, low cost and effective approach for enhancement of seed
germination, early seedling growth and yield under stressed and nonstressed conditions …

Soil salinity affects a large and increasing amount of arable land worldwide, and genetic and
agronomic solutions to increasing salt tolerance are urgently needed. Experiments were …

This study was conducted to determine the effects of seed soaking in salicylic acid (10-2
mol/L, 10-4 mol/L, 10-6 mol/L and control) on the growth and some physiological characters …

Seed priming is known to often alleviate salinity stress during seed emergence and
subsequent crop growth. This study compares the effects of salinity stress on the …

Salinity is considered as a major abiotic stress affecting germination, seedling growth and
crop production in arid and semi-arid regions. Many techniques are used to improve …
