“…However, in 2014, variety and water priming and its interaction significantly ( = 0.05) affected seedling emergence (Table 4). While some studies have shown that priming with fertilizer reduces germination and emergence [24], this study showed that N fertilizer application had no effect on seedling emergence. Similarly, lack of improved field emergence of soybean with sulphur application was reported [19].…”

Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.), a good source of protein and oil, is used to produce nutritious isoflavone-rich soybean-based foods. The objectives of this study were (i) to determine the germination difference among soybean seeds in various seed sizes and (ii) to evaluate effects of seed pretreatment on germination and seedling emergence. Six varieties of different seed size class were used: (i) small size (MFS-561 and V08-4773), (ii) medium size (Glen and V03-47050), and (iii) large size (MFL-159 and V07-1897). Pregermination treatments include 0, 5, or 10 hours soaking and germinating/planting with or without nitrogen fertilizer. Large seed size varieties showed low germination rate and N addition caused the least reduction in germination in these seeds during the first 24 hours. While N had no effect on seed germination after 72 hours, growth in N treated seed was low. Seedling emergence was comparable across varieties in 2013 and water priming and N application had no effect. However, while varieties did not differ in final emergence for nonprimed seeds in 2014, water priming led to a high reduction in seedling emergence of large seed varieties in this study. Application of N fertilizer had no effect on seedling emergence in field experiments.

“…Saeed et al (2017) found that among several techniques, including three forms of priming, that hydropriming resulted in most rapid seedling emergence, significantly improved plant density, plant height, number of pods plant -1 , 1000-seed weight, biological yield and seed yield. Seed priming using KH 2 PO 4 or KNO 3 increased mean emergence time, number of pods plant -1 and grain yield plant -1 but had no impact on 1000grain yield or harvest index (Ghassemi-Golezani et al, 2011). Moshtaghi-Khavaran et al (2015) used four classes of soybean seeds and hydroprimed them with distilled water or haloprimed them with 75 mM NaCl, finding that the latter improved the germination of large seeds more than small seeds.…”

Soybean (Glycine max L.) is an important oilseed crop around the world. Soybean growth, development and productivity are affected by changing environments that induce abiotic stresses. In soybean, salinity acts as a major abiotic stress that increases electrolyte leakage as well as Na + and proline content in plants, and adversely affects plant physiology. This review offers an understanding of how the growth, yield attributes, and yield of soybean decrease under salinity stress. To appreciate how soybean can better adapt to a changing climate that induces salinity stress, an understanding of the mechanisms underlying this stress is needed. Improved performance and yield in response to salinity stress can emerge from the application of novel strategies, such as the development of transgenic crops that enhance salt tolerance in soybean. Effective management strategies, including the use of compatible antioxidants such as proline or glycinebetaine, coupled with a more effective balance of nutrients or the use of organic fertilizers, allow salinity to be mitigated, thereby improving yield and other growth-related quality parameters in soybean.

“…Although the effects of cathodic water on emergence have not been tested before, priming with other solutions has been shown to improve emergence parameters. For example, priming was reported to promote the earlier emergence of seedlings in Oryza sativa [33] and Zea mays [34]. A particularly important emergence parameter is uniformity, because uniformity can improve stand establishment and increase biomass, particularly when conditions are suboptimal, such as during drought, salinity and water stress [33,34].…”

A particularly important emergence parameter is uniformity, because uniformity can improve stand establishment and increase biomass, particularly when conditions are suboptimal, such as during drought, salinity and water stress [33,34]. Uniformity of emergence can also reduce weed-inflicted yield loss, for example by up to 10% in rice [35].…”

All orthodox seeds eventually deteriorate during storage, a well-known problem in seed banking. Here we used a greenhouse study to test if priming deteriorated seeds with cathodic water can improve the emergence and subsequent seedling growth of three South African tree species, Bolusanthus speciosus, Combretum erythrophyllum and Erythrina caffra. Other priming solutions investigated were calcium magnesium (CaMg) solution and deionized water. In the present study, seeds were subjected to an artificial deterioration by increasing their water content to 14% and keeping them at 40 °C and 100% RH until they had lost 50% of their germination under laboratory conditions. Fresh and deteriorated seeds were primed with cathodic water, CaMg solution and deionized water, with non-primed fresh and deteriorated seeds as controls. Controlled deterioration significantly reduced total emergence and the biomass and photosynthetic parameters of the resulting seedlings. In one species (Bolusanthus speciosus), priming the deteriorated seeds with cathodic water significantly improved emergence parameters. However, in all species cathodic water significantly improved the total biomasses and other growth parameters of the seedlings derived from deteriorated seeds. Priming with CaMg solution and deionized water had little effect on emergence and while improving the growth of seedlings derived from deteriorated seeds, they were less effective than cathodic water. In fresh seeds, priming with all solutions resulted in small improvements in some parameters. Controlled deterioration of fresh seeds reduced the membrane stability index (MSI) in two of the three species and in all species increased the levels of the lipid oxidation products MDA and 4-HNE. Priming deteriorated seeds with cathodic water increased the MSI and reduced the MDA contents in all species and the 4-HNE content in one species. Other priming solutions were generally less effective in ameliorating oxidative stress. Results suggest that the strong antioxidative properties of cathodic water can explain its ability to ameliorate deterioration. In conclusion, the present study shows that priming with cathodic water is an effective way of invigorating deteriorated orthodox seeds and that it may have considerable potential in orthodox seed conservation.
