Scarification and Germination of Amsonia tabernaemontana (Walt.) Seeds [PDF]
Journal of Environmental Horticulture, 2013 Eastern bluestar [Amsonia tabernaemontana Walt. (Apocynaceae)] is a herbaceous perennial native to the Eastern United States, yet poor seed germination has inhibited its adoption into commercial product mixes. Germination of A. tabernaemontana seeds at a high percentage was demonstrated in this study. Using the best seed treatment protocol developed in

Acid Scarification Completes the Germination of Hovenia dulcis Seeds
Agronomy, 2022 Seeds have been reported to have a combination of physical and physiological dormancy. However, this study revealed that H. dulcis seeds only have physical dormancy. The water absorption of the seeds after different periods of sulfuric acid scarification was measured, and the water gap through which water was absorbed after scarification treatment was ...

THERMAL STRESS IN THE ADEQUACY OF THE CHEMICAL SCARIFICATION PERIOD IN BRACHIARIA SEEDS
REVISTA DE AGRICULTURA NEOTROPICAL, 2021 Forage seeds often have a low germination percentage due to their seeds' dormancy, such as seeds of the genus Urochloa. Chemical scarification is chosen to overcome the dormancy, yet the seed's vigor level is not taken into account. On this wise, the method can harm the seed's quality.

GERMINATION OF PENSTEMON SEED USING SEED SCARIFICATION AND SEED STRATIFICATION [PDF]
HortScience, 1990 Penstemon, a U.S. native plant/wildflower, is increasing in use as a landscape plant. Penstemon species are commonly propagated by seeds. However, species vary greatly in percent seed germination, Seeds from eight sources of Penstemon germplasm were given cold moist stratification periods of either 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 weeks.
