Abstract

A lab experiment was conducted during 2021-22 atRaichur Karnataka to study the effect of seed bio priming withendophytes was examined on seed quality parameters of soybean(JS-335). The experiment was laid out in two factorial completelyrandomized design with four replications.Results showed that seedbio priming with the endophyte Trichoderma hamatum (1 x 103 conidiaml-1) recorded significantly higher seed germination (81.2%), shootlength (15.9 cm), root length (9.5 cm), seedling vigour index-I (2073),growth rate index (24.08), peak value (893), mean daily germination(10.15) under drought stress as compared to control.
