Effects of carbon and nitrogen content on seed germination of calabrian pine (Pinus brutia) populations

Calabrian pine (Pinus brutia) seeds collected from fifteen populations were analyzed for their carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) content. Moreover, germination percentages (GP) and mean germination times (MGT) of the seeds were evaluated based on their carbon and nitrogen concentrations, C/N ratio, total...
