Abstract
The influence of priming treatments and subsequent accelerated aging on seed parameters of grain sorghum was investigated. Seeds of sorghum were treated by osmo-priming (polyethylene glycol 6000 solution with osmotic potential -1.5 MPa) and hydro-priming for different time (12, 24 and 36 hours). Both osmo- and hydro-priming improved the percentage and mean emergence time (MET) of seeds at sub- optimal temperature of 15 C. Seed treatment for 12 and 24 hours had a ° positive statistically significant effect on percentage and speed emergence. Nevertheless priming for 36 hours failed to improve emergence percentage and mean emergence time (MET). After receiving accelerated aging, osmo- and hydro - primed seeds showed a lower emergence percentage and longer mean emergence time (MET) than their non - aged counterparts. Moreover, treated seeds subjected to accelerated aging showed lower emergence responses than aged control seeds, which was particularly clear for hydro - primed seeds.
