The experiment was conducted at Crop Research Farm unit (CRF) Sam Higginbottom University ofAgriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj during 2020-2021. For this purpose, 13 priming treatmentsincluding control on chickpea var. king Ganesh seeds were subjected to treatment with various primers.The chickpea var. king Ganesh seeds were primed with above different priming agents in above differentconcentrations for a duration of 8 hours. After drying, the seeds were used to grow under field conditions.Experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications during rabi 2020-21. Analysis of variance revealed significant mean sum of squares due to seed priming treatments. Priming with T12 (Rhizobium) (10 g) was found significantly superior which affected all the growth and yield parameters inchickpea in comparison to control and other treatments. Thus, seed priming with T12 (Rhizobium) (10g) is useful for improving yield in chickpea.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
