In the present investigation HUR 105 genotype was selected to see the effect of hydro and hormonal seed priming on growth and development of rice crop. Priming of seeds has been done with distilled water (hydro) and two hormones (Kinetin and salicylic acid) and different growth parameters, such as plant height, number of tillers hill-1 , number of green leaves hill-1 , leaf area hill-1 and leaf area index were studied at different study periods under timely and late sown conditions. Primed seeds increased all the growth parameters in respect to non-primed (control) sets. | Effect of hydro and hormonal priming on growth and development of rice under timely and late sown conditions
