Comparative Efficacy of Chemical and Biological Seed Treatments in Preserving Viability and Vigour of Discoloured Paddy (Oryza sativa L.) cv. Jyothi under Ambient Storage
Grain discolouration in rice (Oryza sativa L.), driven by climate-induced temperature and humidity shifts, severely degrades seed viability and seedling vigour during storage. This study evaluated the physiological deterioration of discoloured seeds of paddy cv. Jyothi under ambient storage and compared the efficacy of...
