What is Hydrotime Analysis of Chenopodium quinoa Seed Germination Responses to Combined Effects of NaCl-Induced Osmotic Stress (Ψ), Chilling Temperature (T), and Ca2+-Priming Treatment about?
The germination process and seedling growth are crucial stages in the life history of a plant that are severely affected in the face of salinity, osmotic, and extreme temperature conditions. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the efficacy of osmopriming with calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ) on the tolerance responses of biological parameters of germination to the combined temperature (T) and sodium chloride (NaCl)-induced osmotic potential (Ψ) conditions using a developed hydrotime model. The germination behavior of Ca 2+ -primed and non-primed seeds was analyzed at different T (1, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 °C) and NaCl-induced Ψ (0, -0.4, -0.8, -1.2, -1.6, -2, and -2.4 MPa) conditions. According to the hydrotime model, Ca 2+ -primed seeds demonstrated a higher tolerance to the joint impacts of chilling and NaCl-induced osmotic conditions than those of non-primed ones. Generally, the priming treatment significantly ameliorated the extent, timing, uniformity of germination, and seedling vigor index at all examined hydro-thermal conditions compared with control seeds. This significance was associated with shifted ecophysiological parameters regarding hydrotime (Θ H ), base water potent
