TL;DR: The present data suggest that priming seeds with melatonin can be a prime strategy regarding the development of crop drought resistant in crop production.

TL;DR: The results indicated that drought stress rigorously hindered germination and early seedling growth of rapeseed cultivars, and the significance of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants and osmolytes in the establishment of rapeeed seedlings under drought stress was highlighted.

TL;DR: The results of the study reveal that the better performance of primed-issued plants was associated with better scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS) through the activation of antioxidant enzymes and more accumulation of proline as compared to no-primed plants both under normal and drought stress conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of wood vinegar and its compounds on the growth of rapeseed (Brassica napus L) were investigated in the field with the hybrid variety of Huayouza 9 for two years, and the results showed that the seed yield, the leaf area index and the number of pods per plant per plant were increased by an average of 9.58%, 23.45%, and 23.80% in two years as compared to the CK.

TL;DR: The floral bud quantity largely determines rapeseed yield, and thus the genotypes with strong vernalization requirement should be planted early to extend the vegetative stage to achieve more fertile floral buds while the genotype with weak vernALization requirementShould be planted late to avoid flowering in chilling environment.
