Seed Priming with Mg(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> and ZnSO<sub>4</sub> Salts Triggers the Germination and Growth Attributes Synergistically in Wheat Varieties
An experiment was conducted in both laboratory (germinative attributes) and field conditions (growth attributes) with completely randomized design (CRD) and randomized block design, respectively, to view the responses of different priming treatments in two wheat varieties: HUW-234 (V1) and BHU-3(V2)...
