Abiotic stresses, such as temperature extremes, drought, salinity, and heavy metals are
major factors limiting crop productivity and sustainability worldwide. Abiotic stresses disturb …

Many factors can cause and affect cell growth in the plant such as external (environmental)
and internal factors; one of the most important internal factors is plant growth hormones …

Indian jujube or ber (Ziziphus mauritiana Lam.) is a deciduous fruit tree typically cultivated in
several semi-arid areas of Asia because of its adaptability to yield-limiting conditions. The …

Benefits of seed priming in seedling establishment and tolerance to subsequent stress
exposure are well reported. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the priming …

Seeds planted in early spring frequently experience low temperature stress in the soil during
germination and early plant growth. Seed pretreatments such as priming have been shown …

ABSTRACT In regions of South Asia where rainfed maize is grown, effective crop
management during drought is essential for maximising yield. A variety of water‐conserving …

Seed priming is a well known pre-germination strategy that improves seed performance.
However, biochemical and molecular mechanisms underlying priming mediated stress …

Global agriculture faces immense challenges due to climate change, which causes
unpredictable weather patterns, decreased agricultural productivity, and decreased food …

Abiotic stressors including drought, salt and severe temperatures must be endured by plants
because they are immobile. The dispersion of plants is significantly constrained by these …

Priming improves germination, vigour and performance under environmental conditions in
seed crops; however, priming mediated stress tolerance is not much understood in …
