Abstract
Distinct varietal differences existed among the three linen of melees studied.
Heavier weight of 200 epode and earlier and higher percentage germination were obtained from the "turning fruit stage while the number of seed per 0.5, gram seed—weight was obtained from the fully ripe fruit stage.
Fermentation of seeds up to 48 hours reduced the percentage moisture content of the seeds but was increased with prolonged fermentation to 72 hour. Greater seeds were obtained per 0.5 greet seed-weight for the 72—hour fermentation treatment. However, heavier seeds obtained in the control (without fermentation).
