Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Storage of primed rice seeds at 25°C significantly reduced growth attributes by more than 80%.
- Intervention effect The negative storage effects were not observed at -4°C.
- Intervention effect Priming benefits persisted for only 15 days at 25°C, after which primed seeds performed worse than non-primed seeds.
- Association Storage deterioration was related to impaired starch metabolism in primed rice seeds.
- Intervention effect Post-storage treatments did not restore the lost viability of primed rice seeds.
