The effects of methanesulfonic acid on seed germination and morphophysiological changes in the seedlings of two Colobanthus species
The effect of methanesulfonic acid (MSA) on the morphophysiology and biochemistry of the subantarctic species Colobanthus apetalus and the Antarctic species Colobanthus quitensis was examined. We evaluated the effects of various concentrations of MSA on the germination capacity and germination rate...
