Table 1.

Mean seed weight (W), initial viability (V), initial dormancy (D), time taken to 50 % seed germination (T₅₀) and temperatures required for 20 % (G₂₀), 50 % (G₅₀) and maximum (G_max) germination within the temperature ranges used for individuals of all studied species. The dash (–) indicates insufficient germinations to represent temperatures. Different letters between individuals within each species section indicate significant differences between means
