“…Increasing salt tolerance and using appropriate management techniques to counteract the negative effects of salinity on salt-sensitive species is one of the most important and difficult management tasks [ 74 ]. Therefore, seed priming is the effective and ancient method to reduce the negative effects of various abiotic stresses [ [75] , [76] , [77] ]. Various priming techniques have been applied to seeds of many crops to help them overcome growth barriers and establish themselves more successfully in harsh climatic conditions [ [78] , [79] , [80] , [81] , [82] ].…”

“…When inorganic salt solutions of sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium nitrate, copper sulphate, zinc sulphate etc. are used as osmotic agents for priming individually or in combinations it is known as halopriming 21 . Priming with sodium chloride at seed sowing rather than post-emergence (4-leaf stage) helped in enhancing the yield in presence of salt stress 22 .…”

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) berries are in great demand across the globe for their nutritive and therapeutic properties. As agriculture land and fresh water resources are limited, the possibility of increasing the production of tomato is either by utilizing unproductive salt affected land for cultivation or unportable water high in salts for irrigation. Tomato is relatively susceptible to salinity during seed germination and seedling establishment phase. However, rapid and synchronized seed germination is essential for proper stand establishment in tomato for increasing its production in salinity stressed environments. Seed priming, a simple and lucrative approach for easing salt stress during the germination phase, is gaining popularity in tomato. Priming improves germination response and brings about certain biochemical changes that help primed tomato seeds to survive and grow under harsh conditions of salinity. This review discusses some of the seed priming methods such as hydropriming, osmopriming, solid matrix priming, hormonal priming, chemical priming, biopriming and physical priming that successfully mitigated the harmful effects of salt stress in tomatoes. Seed priming thus paves the way for utilization of saline land for growing tomato resulting in increased productivity and an improvement in tomato supply chain amidst rising demands.

With the expansion of precision and intensive agriculture, seed quality, which alone could contribute up to 15–20 per cent in terms of crop productivity, has assumed greater importance. Every care is taken not only to produce high-quality seeds and maintain the same through various stages of production, from growing conditions of the seed crop to pre-harvest, harvest, processing and storage activities, but also to adopt certain technologies to further improve the performance of seeds upon sowing of the crop under a wide range of environments. These technologies, collectively known as ‘enhancement’, cover a variety of methods applicable to different crop species and aimed at meeting specific requirements, such as unfavourable growing conditions of hard/acidic/sodic soil, high or low temperature, excess or deficient rainfall, etc., as well as the stress imposed by the presence of pests and diseases that affect crop performance, particularly during the early vegetative stage resulting in poor seed emergence, crop establishment and vegetative growth. Selection of the appropriate and cost-effective technologies is important in accruing the best results from seed enhancement.
