Effect of biopriming of seed with liquid biofertilizers (Azospirillum and Phosphobacterium) was studied in stored seeds of Pongamia pinnata to improve the seed and seedling quality characters. The result revealed that seed treatment with liquid Phosphobacterium at 1.5% recorded higher germination (35%) followed by Azospirillum 0.5% (30%) after six months of storage.
Key words: Biopriming, biofertilizers, seed storage, enhancement, seedling vigour, Pongamia pinnata.
