Increased rate of germination, seedling emergence and seedling vigor Menegatti et al. (2019)

Increased activities of hydrolytic enzymes, accumulation of ROS as

well as antioxidant enzymes

Increased rate of seed germination, biomass accumulation, number

of root nodules, nitrogen metabolism, pigment synthesis, rate of

photosynthesis and productivity

Germination rate increased, observed changes in biochemical and

molecular level involving homeostasis of H

with improved seed

vigor

Improved seed germination and early growth of seedlings, enhanced

activities of α-amylase, protease

Enhanced rate of germination and seedling vigor index

Enhanced seed germination, seedling growth, fruit yield as well as

improved fruit quality

Increased rate of seed germination and better plant establishment both

under salinity stress and normal condition

Enhanced germination dynamics, increased root, and stem length

Increased GPOX activities in leaves and promoted mitotic activity in

meristematic cells

Enhanced germination, seedling vigor and starch metabolism
