Rice seed (IR64) priming with potassium humate for improvement of seed germination, seedling growth and antioxidant defense system under arsenic stress

Rice seed (IR64) priming with potassium humate for improvement of seed germination, seedling growth and antioxidant defense system under arsenic stress

The intolerable levels of arsenic (As) in groundwater and its application in rice cultivation are continuously affecting the rice production in Ganga-Meghna-Brahmaputra (GMB) plain. The reduced germination and plant growth rates under excessive As stress ultimately lead to lower yield. To mitigate t...
