Seed Germination Ecology and Dormancy Release in Some Native and Underutilized Plant Species with Agronomic Potential

Within the context of sustainable exploitation of phytogenetic resources, the present study aimed to develop species-specific seed germination protocols for eighteen native and potentially underutilized plant species originating from northeastern Greece. The taxa were selected based on their antioxi...
