Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Some of the fifteen species showed a significant increase in percentage germination after genebank storage.
- Observation Some of the fifteen species showed a significant decrease in percentage germination after genebank storage.
- Observation Other species showed no significant change in percentage germination after genebank storage.
- Observation Within a species, results were not always consistent, with individual accessions sometimes showing varied germination results.
- Recommendation The authors recommend consistent monitoring of seed storage conditions and regular viability checks to improve genebank management.
