Abstract
A series of greenhouse and field experiments were conducted at Northwest Frontier Province (NWFP) Agricultural University, Peshawar, Pakistan to study the effect of seed priming with dilute solutions of phosphorus (P) on seedling growth and nutrient uptake of mungbean (Vigna radiata L.). Seed of mungbean cv. ‘NM-92’ were primed in 0.01% and 0.02% P solutions and also in water for four hours along with a non-primed seed (control). The primed seed was washed with distilled water to remove nutrients adhering to seed coat and air dried. The amount of nutrients introgressed into seed or adhered onto the seed hull was measured. Higher P was introgressed by the seed primed with 0.02% P solution followed by seed primed in 0.01% P solution as compared to water soaked and dry seeds both in nonwashed and surface washed seeds. Likewise, seed priming with P solutions significantly improved seedling P concentration and uptake 14 and 21 days after sowing as compared to water soaked and dry seeds in both greenhouse and field experiments. Similarly, seed priming with P solutions significantly improved fresh and dry weight and plant height of mungbean seedlings 21 days after sowing in the field experiment.
