- Abstract
The milk is very useful part of human diet, because it has good nutritive values as it containsessential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, copper andproteins(casein, lactalbumin and lactoglobulin) as reported from milk of different cattle like cow (CW), goat(GT), buffalo (BF) and camel (CL). Because of these nutritional qualities, it found suitable in farming for pretreatment of seeds before sowing which is called as "seed priming". In current study we carried out the effectof different milk samplesas seed priming treatment resulting in enhanced the seed germination of Vigna radiata(up to 100%), increase the biomassand influence the vegetative parameters like root-shootlength. Highest root length of 6.90 cm and 7.42 cm was noticed with CW milk (100% concentration) and GT (100% concentration) respectively. Highest biomass of root (0.34 gm)after treatment with goat milk (100% concentration) and shoot (0.93 gm) treated with CW milk (50% concentration) is observed. Total chlorophyll content was found (5.04 μg/ml) with BF milk (100% concentration) and protein content of565.13 μg/mlis observed after treatment with BF milk (50% concentration). Presence of magnesium and copper in milk is considered as useful for better seed germination after seed priming.
