    The document shows the effects of different osmopriming agents on germination and seedling growth parameters in Tenai cv. CO rice seeds. Seeds primed with 2% mannitol showed the highest germination rate (86%), speed of emergence (35.2%), and vigour index (1386), performing better than seeds primed with water, NaCl, PEG, or no treatment (control). Overall, osmopriming improved germination and seedling growth over the control.
