(A) Changes in the endogenous concentrations of phytohormones in Q. ilex embryo axis and seedling during germination and post-germination stages. The levels of abscisic acid (ABA), gibberellins (GA3, GA4), auxin (IAA), and cytokinins (iP, iPR,) were determined by using GC-MS/MS. Data are means ± SE of measurements made on 20–50 seeds per sampling time, grouped in three pools. Statistical significance was determined using the one-way ANOVA Tukey’s test. The P-values are given as P < 0.05 level and ∗∗∗P < 0.001 level. (B) Phytohormone interactions during germination and seedling development.
