Seed Perpetuation inRhynchosia capitata DC
- 1 Ecology Laboratory, Botany Department, University of Jodhpur, Jodhpur, India
Rhynchosia capitata possesses a hard seed coat dormancy. Three types of seeds were marked out of this species on the basis of colour and mottling on the seed coat. The three different types behave differently when they were tested for germination.
