- Intervention effect Abscisic acid, gibberellic acid, kinetin and zeatin did not induce germination of olive seeds in darkness
- Intervention effect SAN 9789 did not promote germination at 15 °C
- Intervention effect SAN 9789 promoted germination to 75% at 25 °C
- Intervention effect Abscisic acid counteracted the germination-promoting effect of SAN
- Intervention effect Naked embryos grew equally well with or without SAN 9789
- Intervention effect 6-Benzylaminopurine promoted whole seed germination to 15%
