Abstract
Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) is a member of the Leguminaceae family, which is a self-
pollinated crop. The investigation on germination and its related parameters and experiment
was conducted at Seed Science and Technology Laboratory, S. D. Agricultural University,
Sardarkrushinagar. Recorded data analyzed by using Completely Randomized Design (CRD)
with twelve seed priming treatments viz., control (T1), hydro priming (T2), moringa leaf extract
(2%) (T3), moringa leaf extract (5%) (T4), Breejamrut (5%) (T5), cow urine (10%) (T6), GA3
(50 ppm) (T7), GA3 (100 ppm) (T8), PEG-6000 (5.0%) (T9), PEG-6000 (7.5%) (T10), ZnSO4
(0.025%) (T11) and ZnSO4 (0.05%) (T12) for 2 hours and laboratory data showed that the
higher value of germination percentage (96.78 %), root length (16.53 cm), shoot length (20.35
cm), seedling length (36.88 cm), root fresh weight (2.79 g), shoot fresh weight (3.26 g),
seedling fresh weight (6.06 g), root dry weight (0.182 g), shoot dry weight (0.267 g), seedling
dry weight (0.408 g), seedling vigour index I (3473.32) and seedling vigour index II (39.47)
were observed with 7.5 % PEG-6000 treatment. So, suggesting that seed priming is a simple,
low cost and environmentally friendly technique for improving seed germination and vigour
of cowpea (GC-6).
