Priming memory invokes seed stress-tolerance

TLDR
A hypothetical model illustrating the cellular physiology of priming-induced stress-tolerance is proposed, likely achieved via two strategies: first, seed priming sets in motion germination-related activities that facilitate the transition of quiescent dry seeds into germinating state and lead to improved germination potential, and secondly, priming imposes abiotic stress on seeds that represses radicle protrusion but stimulates stress responses.

Nanopriming technology for enhancing germination and starch metabolism of aged rice seeds using phytosynthesized silver nanoparticles

TL;DR: Different mechanisms underlying nanopriming-induced seed germination were proposed, including creation of nanopores for enhanced water uptake, rebooting ROS/antioxidant systems in seeds, generation of hydroxyl radicals for cell wall loosening, and nanocatalyst for fastening starch hydrolysis.

The effects of manure, genotype, seed priming, depth and date of sowing on the emergence and early growth of Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench in semi-arid Botswana

D. Harris
TL;DR: In this paper, a subset of 84 trials for which more detailed data were available showed that the most common reason for failure was "soil too dry" at, or just after, sowing.
