“…Thus, the enhancement of water absorption can trigger faster germination and earlier seedling vigor by regulating endogenous hormones and hydrolytic enzymes during imbibition and sequentially supplying nutrients to an actively growing embryo ( Li et al, 2014 ; Stolárik et al, 2015 ; Chen et al, 2016 ; Ji et al, 2016 ; Guo et al, 2017 ; Sadhu et al, 2017 ). Additionally, plasma-induced ROS, RNS, and UV can lead to better seed germination and seedling establishment under stressful conditions as follows: 1) reduce infection with pathogenic microorganisms in germinating seeds or growing plants ( Selcuk et al, 2008 ; Filatova et al, 2014 ; Jiang et al, 2014b ; Zahoranová et al, 2016 ; Ono et al, 2017 ; Lee et al, 2019 ), 2) regulate ROS homeostasis through the antioxidant machinery of plants ( Yin et al, 2005 ; Šerá et al, 2010 ; Henselová et al, 2012 ; Bußler et al, 2015 ; Li et al, 2015 ; Chen et al, 2016 ; Ji et al, 2016 ; Guo et al, 2017 ; Li et al, 2017 ; Zhang et al, 2017 ), and 3) activate other defense-related responses in plant cells ( Iranbakhsh et al, 2017 ; Iranbakhsh et al, 2018 ). Many studies have shown that the application of exogenous ROS, RNS, or UV radiation has similar effects on seeds, thus resulting in an enhanced stress tolerance before stress events ( Antoniou et al, 2016 ; Thomas and Puthur, 2017 ).…”

Crops during their early growth stages are vulnerable to a wide range of environmental stressors; thus, earlier seed invigoration and seedling establishment are essential in crop production. As an alternative to synthetic chemical treatments, plasma technology could be one of the emerging technologies to enhance seed germination and seedling vigor by managing environmental stressors. Recent studies have shown its beneficial effects in various stress conditions, suggesting that plasma treatment can be used for early crop stress management. This paper reviewed the effects of different types of plasma treatments on plant responses in terms of the seed surface environment (seed scarification and pathogen inactivation) and physiological processes (an enhanced antioxidant system and activated defense response) during the early growth stages of plants. As a result, plasma treatment can enhance seed invigoration and seedling establishment by alleviating the adverse effects of environmental stressors such as drought, salinity, and pathogen infection. More information on plasma applications and their mechanisms against a broad range of stressors is required to establish a better plasma technology for early crop stress management.

“…This pre-planting technique can improve radicle emergence, germination speed, and seedling establishment by changing the metabolic activity of seeds (Ghassemi-Golezani et al, 2016;Damalas et al, 2019;Zulfiqar et al, 2022). The combination of CP with hydropriming resulted in smoothing of the seed surface (Wang et al, 2017), the regulation of osmotic salts, and the alteration of the subsequent process of water uptake (Lee et al, 2018).…”

Finding a suitable method to increase seed germination rates of medicinal plants is critical to saving them from extinction. The effects of cold plasma (CP) treatments (using surface power densities of 80 and 100 W, with exposure times of 0, 120, 180, and 240 s) and incorporating hydropriming (carried out for 24 and 2 h on normal and uncovered seeds, respectively) to enhance the seed germination of Salvia leriifolia Benth a native endangered Iranian medicinal plant, were evaluated in this study. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images identified more destroyed mesh-like structures in hydro-primed and uncovered seeds than in normal and dry seeds. In comparison to the control, and other treatments, employing 100 W of CP for 240 s produced the maximum germination percentage and rate, as well as a seedling vigor of I and II in hydro-primed and uncovered seeds. The levels of α-amylase activity increased when the power and exposure times of CP were increased. The uncovering and hydropriming of S. leriifolia seeds resulted in increased enzyme activity. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) contents were enhanced by increasing the power and exposure time of CP, especially in uncovered and hydro-primed seeds. The activity of antioxidant enzymes, including catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), was correlated to changes in MDA and H2O2 levels. Finally, direct contact of CP with uncovered seeds in a short exposure time can improve the germination of S. leriifolia seeds via microscopic etching and activation of enzymes.

“…The decontamination of soybean seeds contaminated with bacteria using PAW was reported by Lee et al [ 44 ]. PAW reduced the overall 4.3-log CFU/mL amount of aerobic microbes and 7.0-log CFU/mL of artificially inoculated Salmonella Typhimurium within 5 min and 2 min, respectively.…”

“…In [ 44 ], the authors also observed an increase in ascorbate, asparagine and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and followed the development of cotyledon and hypocotyl in germinating soybean seed of soybean from the 1st to the 4th day of cultivation. In Zhou et al [ 58 ], the authors applied PAW on mung beans and reported that the high concentration of ROS might contribute to the chapping of seed coat, which improved its absorption of water and nutrients.…”

The legumes (Fabaceae family) are the second most important agricultural crop, both in terms of harvested area and total production. They are an important source of vegetable proteins and oils for human consumption. Non-thermal plasma (NTP) treatment is a new and effective method in surface microbial inactivation and seed stimulation useable in the agricultural and food industries. This review summarizes current information about characteristics of legume seeds and adult plants after NTP treatment in relation to the seed germination and seedling initial growth, surface microbial decontamination, seed wettability and metabolic activity in different plant growth stages. The information about 19 plant species in relation to the NTP treatment is summarized. Some important plant species as soybean (Glycine max), bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), mung bean (Vigna radiata), black gram (V. mungo), pea (Pisum sativum), lentil (Lens culinaris), peanut (Arachis hypogaea), alfalfa (Medicago sativa), and chickpea (Cicer aruetinum) are discussed. Likevise, some less common plant species i.g. blue lupine (Lupinus angustifolius), Egyptian clover (Trifolium alexandrinum), fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum), and mimosa (Mimosa pudica, M. caesalpiniafolia) are mentioned too. Possible promising trends in the use of plasma as a seed pre-packaging technique, a reduction in phytotoxic diseases transmitted by seeds and the effect on reducing dormancy of hard seeds are also pointed out.
