dc.description.abstractThe field experiment was conducted at MARS, College of Agriculture, UAS, Raichur, to know the effect of priming treatment on growth, seed yield and quality of kabuli chickpea. The experiment consists of eleven treatments and three replications with various chemicals, growth regulator and biological agents either alone or in combination. Among the treatment, GA3 @ 50 ppm + seed coating of Trichoderma harzianum @ 15 g per kg of seed recorded significantly higher plant height at 30 DAS (17.80 cm), 60 DAS (38.50 cm) and at harvest (59.60 cm) and less number of days to 50 per cent flowering (66 days) and higher number of pod per plant (33.00), However, seeds treated with mancozeb 50 % + carbendazim 25% @ 3 g per kg of seed recorded significantly higher seed yield (1869 kg/ha), harvest index (42.12) and lowest per cent of wilt incidence (1.67%) and Asochyta blight incidence (4.66%), compared to control. The resultant seeds of the seed primed with GA3 @ 50 ppm + seed coating of Trichoderma harzianum @ 15 g per kg of seed recorded significantly higher germination (97.00 %), root length (16.34 cm), shoot length (9.80 cm) and seedling vigour index (2536). The storage experiment was carried at Department of Seed Science and Technology, College of Agriculture, UAS Raichur, to know the effect of seed priming treatments on storability of kabuli chickpea. The experiment consists of seven treatments and four replications, the seed treated with mancozeb 50% + carbendazim 25% at 3 g/kg of seed recorded significantly higher germination (85.00%), shoot length (5.38 cm), root length (13.31 cm), seedling dry weight (676 mg), seedling vigour index (1589), dehydrogenase activity (0.838 OD value), α-Amylase activity (26.10 mm) and lowest electrical conductivity (0.742 dSm-1), pathogen infection (4.00%), insect infestation (14.75 %) and moisture content (7.65 %) at the end of ninth month of storage.en_US
