Abstract
Hydropriming had positive effects on the time for germination to reach 50%, the germination index, the time to final germination percentage, and the number of uniform seedlings with enlarged cotyledons in in vitro germination of small watermelon. In addition, the highest shoot initiation was obtained from hydroprimed cotyledonary nodes (
