ABSTRACT
Field experiment was conducted at Experimental Farm, Annamalai University, Annamalainagar to evaluate the effect of different priming treatments on the growth and yield attributes of blackgram. Seed were fully soaked in GA3, CaCl, KH2PO4, kBr, Rhizobium + Pseudomonas, Rhizobium + Trichoderma viride, hydro priming and control for 24 hours at 15C. Seed priming treatments enhances seed germination, early canopy development and flower initiation in comparison to the untreated control. Different priming treatments were recorded significantly in growth and yield attributes of greengram. Results shows that seed priming with Rhizobium + Trichoderma viride recorded the highest values of growth and yield components when compared to other treatments.
Key words: Greengram, Hydropriming, Seed germination, Biofertilizers and Seed priming.
