The Science and Practice of Seed Priming: Molecular Insights and Challenges in Seed Testing
The webinar aims aims to provide participants with insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying seed priming, its effects on seed germination, performance and storability, and the challenges it may present for seed quality assessment. It will also explore the practical interpretation and application of the ISTA Rules when testing treated, coated, pelleted and primed seeds, with particular attention to purity analysis, Other Seed Determination (OSD) and germination testing. By combining scientific knowledge with practical guidance, the webinar aims to support accurate seed testing, reliable interpretation of results and a better understanding of the implications of seed priming for seed quality evaluation.Read more
