Water potential and viability of seeds of Eugenia (Myrtaceae), a tropical tree species, based upon different levels of drying
The aim of the present work was to study the water potential and viability of Eugenia based upon different levels of drying. The seeds showed high water content at shedding and were sensitive to desiccation; however, the level of this sensitivity (water content) varied among the species. Five target...
