Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect GA3 seed priming increased shoot length of lentil relative to non-primed seeds.
- Intervention effect Non-primed control seeds gave increased seedling root number and length.
- Intervention effect Distilled water priming increased germination rate and percentage.
- Intervention effect The control treatment increased germination rate and percentage.
- Intervention effect In pot experiments GA3 priming increased plant height and seedling emergence rate.
- Intervention effect KCl priming improved nodule number and root and shoot dry weight compared with the control.
- Intervention effect ZnSO4 priming increased yield components and grain yield in the field.
- Recommendation The authors suggest ZnSO4, GA3 and PEG-6000 seed priming may be useful for improving germination and yield of lentil.
