ABSTRACT

Priming treatments are successfully applied either to poor germinating seed lots or to seeds which are sown under different stress conditions. Priming treatments are widely used in horticultural crops. Consequently, primed seeds are equipped with advanced germination and exhibit improved germination rate and uniformity. Moreover, seed priming is often implicated in improving the stresstolerance of germinating seeds. Priming initiates metabolic activities, such as: protein, RNA, and DNA synthesis, DNA replication, and ß-tubulin accumulation. The priming permits part of the metabolic procedures vital for germination to happen before the germination starts. Oil seeds are extremely susceptible to the unforgiving ecological conditions. It is estimated that their oil content promptly oxidizes, which break down the seed wellbeing away. A standout amongst the most vital viewpoints for oil seed creation is quick development and great seedling foundation in field. A few strategies have been accustomed to preconditioning of seeds trying to enhance germination and seedling foundation of numerous vegetables.
