A microencapsulation approach to design microbial seed coatings to boost wheat seed germination and seedling growth under salt stress

IntroductionSalt stress in seed germination and early seedling growth is the greatest cause of crop loss in saline-alkali soils. Microbial seed coating is an effective way to promote plant growth and salt resistance, but these coatings suffer from poor seed adhesion and low survival rates under typi...
