Abstract

Carrot (Daucus carota L.) is one of the important root vegetable in umbelliferae family. It covers an area of 62.4 thousand ha in India with the production of 10.7 lakh tonnes (Saxena and Gandhi, 2015). Though carrot is root crop, it is mainly cultivated by seeds. The success of any crop production is mainly depending on quality of the seed. In general seed quality reduces with respect to storage period. Quality of aged seed can be enhanced by different seed enhancement treatment viz; priming (hydropriming, osmopriming, halo priming and solid matrix priming),
