Abstract

This work was carried out to evaluate the effect of sulfuric acid pre-treatment on the germination percentage of Panicum maximum Jacq. seeds, in laboratory conditions. Recently harvested seeds, of five varieties, pre-treated or not with sulfuric acid, were tested periodically from August 1991 to April 1993. The statistical analysis of the collected data showed that the pre-treatment did not contribute to improve the germination of the seeds, since the beginning until the end of the storage period.
