Effects of seed priming and organic nutrient management on germination and emergence of common bean.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Seed priming and organic nutrient management are widely recognized strategies for improving seed germination and early seedling establishment; however, their combined effects on seed physiological quality in common bean remain insufficiently understood, particularly under controlled production systems. This study evaluated the effects of five fertilizer regimes (Control, Chemical, Organo-mineral, Cattle Manure, and Vermicompost) and eight seed-priming treatments (No priming, Hydropriming, Vermipriming, Cow Urine Priming, and their accelerated aging combinations) on germination and emergence performance of the Sazova 1949 dwarf bean cultivar across two production years. Significant effects (p < 0.05) of both fertilizer and priming treatments were observed for most seed quality traits, including germination percentage, mean germination time, germination and emergence indices, and electrical conductivity. Fertilizer regimes significantly influenced seed electrical conductivity, with organo-mineral fertilizer showing the lowest values, indicating improved membrane integrity, although some effects varied across years. Priming treatments had a pronounced effect on seed performance, where hydropriming and vermipriming significantly reduced mean germination time and improved germination percentage and vigor indices compared with non-primed seeds, while cow urine priming generally resulted in lower performance. Accelerated aging significantly reduced seed vigor; however, some priming treatments partially mitigated these negative effects. Overall, the combined use of effective seed priming and organic-based fertilizer regimes significantly enhanced seed physiological quality under laboratory conditions. However, the study was limited to controlled experiments on a single cultivar, and therefore results should be interpreted as indicators of seed vigor rather than direct agronomic performance. Field validation and long-term assessments are required to confirm broader applicability.
