PrimSeedPower introduced its monthly “Primed Seminars” series with a programme announced for 4 November 2026, bringing together complementary perspectives on how plants respond to stress and how priming approaches may improve resilience.

The line-up featured Prof. Erna Karalija with “Can Seeds Remember? Exploring Seed Priming, Stress Memory and Plant Resilience”; Musab Isak with a presentation on machine-learning-assisted evaluation of in vitro drought stress responses in horticultural crops; and Mafalda Pinto exploring eucalyptus extracts as potential seed priming agents against bacterial spot disease. Designed around concise talks and discussion, the series creates an accessible forum for experienced and early-career researchers.
