Studies on the improvement of seed germination in caper

Abstract

Caper seeds were soaked in various H2SO4, GA3 concentrations and GA3 applications during March-May periods in 1997 and 1998.The suitable treatments to increase germination rates were found as 15 minutes in H2SO4+24 hours in 100 ppm GA3 concentration and 30 minutes in H2SO4 + 24 hours in 50 ppm GA3 concentration
