Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Germination was delayed in both salt solutions.
- Intervention effect At equal water potential, cumin germination, shoot and root growth measures were higher in NaCl than Na2SO4.
- Intervention effect Mean germination time was lower in NaCl than Na2SO4 at equal water potential.
- Intervention effect Abnormal germination percentage was lower in NaCl than Na2SO4 at equal water potential.
- Association Root to shoot weight ratio rose with osmotic potential in both salt solutions.
- Association Root to shoot length ratio rose with osmotic potential in both salt solutions.
- Observation NaCl inhibited cumin seedling growth less than germination.
- Mechanism The authors attributed germination inhibition at equal water potential to salt toxicity rather than osmotic effect.
- Intervention effect Hydropriming increased cumin germination under salt stress.
- Recommendation The authors recommend the priming protocol for higher germination and uniform field emergence.
