“…These include hydropriming, halopriming, hardening and osmopriming [17], hormone priming, solid matrix, humidification and stratification and thermal shock [25]- [32].The first four approaches are the most common for the purposes of priming [12]. It has been reported that seed priming results in the enhancement of seed germination of plants such as mungbean (Vigna radiata) [33], common alder (Anlus glutinosa) [4] and several acacia species [29]- [35]- [36]- [9], (Ziziphus spinachristi) [45], okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) [5],enhancement of emergence rate of armada pine (Pinus armadii) [46], Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) [26], Norway spruce (Picea abies), silver birch (Betula pendula), beech (Fagus sylvatica) and shore pine (Pinus contorta) [40], common alder (Alnus glutinosa) and downy brich (Betula pubescens) [4] maize (Zea mays) and chickpea (Cicer arietinum) [19]- [20], mungbean [33], wheat (Triticum aestivum) [27], cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) [41], increased uniformity and seedling establishment of red oak (Quercus rubra) [44], marica (Mimosa bimucronata) [8], lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) and white spruce (Picea glauca) [22], and increased output of barley (Hordeum vulgare) [34], maize and chickpea [19]- [21] mungbean [33], and seedlings quality of christimas tress (Pinus brutia) [24], Acacia nilotica [30]. This research is designed to evaluate the response of A. cyanophylla seeds to pre-sowing seed treatments.…”
