Viability and germination capacities of Saba senegalensis (A. DC.) Pichon seeds, a multi-purpose agroforestry species in West Africa
Saba senegalensis (A. DC.) Pichon is a woody liana of the Apocynaceae family native to sub-Saharan Africa. The species is known as a useful food wild crop with a high potential to contribute to soil and water conservation. However, little is documented about the variation among the species’ provenances and seeds germination. Such baseline information is needed to initiate S. senegalensis breeding, domestication and conservation programs. The present study aimed to evaluate the inter-provenance variation and effects of storage duration and conditions on seeds viability. The experimental trial u... Mehr ...
