The effects of hot water and hypochlorite treatment on seeds. The percentage of (A) contamination and (B) germination of I. sanguinea seeds after soaking overnight in water at 40, 70, 80, or 90 °C and sterilization with 4% NaOCl for 10, 20, and 30 minutes. Values represent Mean ± SD of three biological replicates. Different letters on the bars indicate significant differences with each other (P < 0.05), while same letters indicate the lack of significance, as determined by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Duncan’s post-test.
