“Artificial ageing of tomato seeds (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill., cv. Lerica), at both 40°C/12.4% moisture content (MC) and 60°C/7.1% MC, resulted in a significant decreasein seed quality as evidenced by decreases in total germination, normal seedlings and the rate and uniformity of germination”

“Osmopriming partially counteracted the effects of ageing on germination rate, uniformity and normal seedlings, but did not influence the frequency of aberrant anaphases in root tips of the seedlings”
“the relative percentage of the larvae of the two major stem borer species, S. incertulas and Chilo polychrysa (Meyrick) found in the region changed from 88% S. incertulasin the farmers' practice plot to 65% in the pheromone-treated plot”
Osmotic-stress inhibition of coleoptile growth is not caused by loss of cell wall extensibility or osmotic gradients but by reduced water supply from the roots.

“Application of 60 mM polyethylene glycol (PEG) to dark-grown wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) roots substantially reduced growth of coleoptiles”
e7
“These results suggest that inhibition of coleoptile growth under osmotic stress conditions is not directly related to a decreasein cell wall extensibility or to loss of the capacity to maintain osmotic potential gradients, but is caused by the reduction of the water supply from the roots to the coleoptiles”

“In 1990 the higher MBT application (4 kg ha -1 ) caused a decreasein nodulation and acetylene reduction activity (ARA) per plant during the mid-period of pod-fill, and also in vegetative growth, seed production and N content of seeds, whereas the lower rate (2·5 kg ha -1 ) did not have a significant effect on any of these factors”

“A concentration dependent decreasein root nitrate reductase (E.C.1.6.6.1) activity (NRA) by 0.1 to 2.0 mM lead acetate was noticed in three cultivars of Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek (K851, MH8320 and ML337).”

“Total nitrogen content of root and shoot was generally increased due to supply of the lead acetate, whereas the total nitrogen content of the colyledons was hardly affected in cvs. MH8320 and ML337 and decreased in cv. K851 during the early growth phase.”
