description Brassinosteroid (BR) is a hormone known for its crucial role in seed germination promotion. However, there is a limited understanding of potential application in tobacco seed. In this study, we investigated various active ingredients for seed coating to enhance tobacco seed germination. It revealed that seed coating with 0.0500 ppm BR and priming with 0.01 ppm BR significantly increased seed germination rates, especially in low-temperature conditions. In addition, the combined use BR with priming and seed coating exhibited a substantial improvement in seed germination rates and promoted seedling growth. Through transcriptional analysis, it found that BR treatment regulates the expression of genes associated with DNA synthesis, cell wall organization and glucan metabolic process involved in seed dormancy and seedling growth. Overall, these results provide valuable insights into the utilization of seed coating and priming techniques, particularly with the inclusion of BR, to enhance tobacco seed germination and facilitate seedling emergence.
