- Observation November-harvested Valencia orange seeds did not germinate without cold storage.
- Intervention effect Cold storage for 21 days resulted in 100% germination of seeds from November-harvested fruit.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid induced about 55% germination in seeds from fruit without cold treatment.
- Intervention effect Presoaking cold-treated orange seeds in GA 3 increased germination rates.
- Intervention effect High germination temperature increased germination rates of seeds from cold-treated fruit.
