Effects Of Seed Priming On Corn Seeding Date, Stress Tolerance, and Productivity

Crop Types
  • Corn
Collaborating Locations

The goal of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of seed priming on seeding date, stress tolerance, and productivity of corn. 

Objectives

  1. Evaluate the efficacy of different seed priming solutions for enhancing corn tolerance to sub-optimal temperature, waterlogging, and drought (alone or in combination) under a controlled environment.
  2. Conduct field evaluations at multiple locations to evaluate the effects of seed priming on corn seeding date and productivity.
