摘要
Techniques were tested for improving germination in eight tree species indigenous to Cameroon forests. Manual scarification was the most efficient treatment for all species, although a significant interaction between treatment and species was found. Only one species was sensitive to all treatments. The use of sulphuric acid was not an effective alternative to manual scarification. (C) 1999 Inra/Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
