Abstract: Present investigation was carried out to study the “Effect of seed priming on anerobic germination of rice” during wet season, 2016-17. Experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replication and two varieties Sambha Mahsuri and Sambha Mahsuri Sub1 in cemented pond (size; 20×20×1.25 meter). Primed seeds were direct seeded and field was completely submerged/ flooded, up to 25-30 cm water depth was maintained for one month. Recommended dose of N, P and K @ 120:40:40 Kg ha-1 was reframed with time schedule (1/4 dose of N and full dose of P2O5 and K2O were applied as basal and rest N was applied in there splits i.e. 30, 60 and 90 DAS respectively). Treatments comprised of (T1) Seed priming with GA3 @ 25 ppm, (T2) Seed priming with GA3 @ 50 ppm, (T3) Seed priming with JLE @ 2%, (T4) Seed priming with KNO3@ 0.5%, (T5) Seed priming with KCl @ 0.2%, (T6) Seed priming with NaCl @ 0. 5%, (T7) Seed priming with IAA @ 0.2%, (T8) Seed priming with CaCl2 @ 0.1%, (T9) Control with distilled water.
