The effect of exogenously-applied Moringa (Moringa oleifera Lam.) leaf extract (MLE) on delaying the leaf senescence and modifying the source-sink relationship in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was studied. MLE (3.3%) was used as seed osmopriming (SP) and/or foliar spray (F), and water as hydropriming (HP). Among seedling attributes, improved shoot and root lengths, leaf and root scores were found for SP and/or F treatments. Increase or decrease in stem dry weight simultaneously with grain dry weight might contribute for soluble stem reserves towards grain weight as showed by delayed leaf senescence in SP or combined SP+F treatment. The SP and F treatments had also earlier spike emergence and anthesis stage. Plant height, tillers number, biological and grain yields per plant were also recorded highest for SP+F treatment followed by SP. Thus, MLE being rich in zeatin, a cytokinin maintained the green photosynthetic area and enhanced grain filling that might contributed towards improved grain yield when applied as SP or in combination with foliar. © 2017 Friends Science Publishers
