Seed Storage <\/strong><\/p>\n

The storage behavior of this species is orthodox (desiccation-tolerant seeds), dry to 15-20% eRH, and store at -20\u00b0C.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Germination requirements<\/strong><\/p>\n

The seeds of this species are dormant. Sterilize seeds before placing them on wet germination paper. Place seeds for two weeks to two months\u200c at 4 \u00baC to germinate uniformly. Then germinate under an alternating temperatures of 20 \u00baC (16 hours of light) and 15 \u00baC (8 hours of darkness).<\/p>\n

Morphology<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fruit type:<\/strong> Schizocarp (schizocarp is an indehiscent dry fruit that consists of two not compressed or compressed\u200c lateraly\/dorsally carpels called mericarp)<\/p>\n

Fruit shape: <\/strong>Mericarps broadly elliptical, homomorphic, compressed dorsally, dorsal side with 3 prominent ribs, with distinct sap canal, lateral ribs narrowly winged, ventral side slightly concave, with central rib, with distinct sap canal, apex with stylopodium. Surface dull, globrous, brown-colored, with cream-colored ribs<\/p>\n

Fruit size:<\/strong> Length 5.87 to 8.33 mm, width 4.09 to 4.80 mm in an accession from Bandar Abbas, Hormozgan, with a 1000 seed\/fruit weight of 11 g, which was collected and identified in 2016 by Mohammadamin Soltani, and is stored in the Natural Resources Gene Bank of Iran with the accession number 45793.<\/p>\n

1000 seed\/fruit weight: <\/strong>6 to 12 g<\/p>\n
