- Intervention effect Water immersion gave B. virgilioides a 0.69 germination speed index.
- Intervention effect Acetic acid immersion had varied and lower overall performance.
- Recommendation Scarification with sandpaper was judged among the most effective ways to increase seedling production.
- Recommendation immersion in water at room temperature for 48 hours was judged among the most effective ways to increase seedling production.
