- Intervention effect Mansonia altissima seeds treated with 0.015g/l IAA, 0.005g/l IBA, 0.01g/l GA, 0.01 and 0.02g/l NAA germinated 5 days after sowing.
- Intervention effect Mansonia altissima seeds treated with 0.015g/l NAA were the last batch to germinate, at 8 days after sowing.
- Intervention effect The highest germination percentage, 66, was recorded in Mansonia altissima seeds soaked in 0.02g/l IAA.
- Intervention effect The lowest germination rate, 38%, was recorded in Mansonia altissima seeds treated with 0.005g/l IBA.
- Association Seedling height differed significantly among Mansonia altissima seedlings subjected to different growth hormones.
- Intervention effect Germination of seeds and growth of Mansonia altissima seedlings responded well to treatment with plant growth hormones.
