Elwendia wolfii and E. caroides are two herbaceous perennials that were initially classified in the Bunium genus and later transferred to the Elwendia genus. They are a rich source of bioactive and antioxidant compounds and have the potential to become sources of oil-bearing crops. The aim of this study was to investigate requirements for embryo growth, dormancy break and seed germination in these two species. The effects of gibberellic acid (GA3) and dry storage were also examined to determine the type of dormancy. The pericarps and seed coats of both species were water-permeable, and the embryos were small and differentiated but underdeveloped, with initial embryo lengths of 0.28 mm in E. wolfii and 0.96 mm in E. caroides, respectively. These underdeveloped embryos were either di (>98%) or tricotyledonous ( |
