Seed priming attenuates the impact of salt stress and enhances lettuce yields

Salt stress is a major factor that contributes to reduced lettuce productivity. Seed priming has emerged as a promising technique to improve crop stress tolerance. In this study, Romaine lettuce seeds were primed with calcium chloride (CaCl2), distilled water (hydro), and potassium nitrate (KNO3) to...
