Seed Priming in Vegetable Crops: A Review

Vegetables crops are important in human nutrition and its importance in daily nutrition is getting increases all around the world. Rapid germination and emergence of seedlings are essential for successful crop establishment, importance of good and high crop establishment is recognized by researchers and as well as by farmers they are major challenges in successful crop production (Chivasa et al., 1998 and Murungu et al., 2004). Main reasons for the successful crop stand are high germination percent and good vigor of seedlings (Noor et al., 2013). Modern strategic approaches are however International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 8 Number 06 (2019) Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com
