Ligustrum lucidum ait. is an exotic species and In the present study, contents of sugars, proteins, and germination were evaluated in seeds removed from not abscisic and abscisic fruits. The seeds were stored or not under shadow or sun. The higher contents of total and reducing sugars were observed in seeds removed from not abscisic fruit while the period of storage resulted in the loss of these compounds. The same result was observed in the content of total sugars of seeds from abscisic fruits. The content of reducing sugars in seeds from abscisic fruits and submitted to storage had its content increased. The contents of total proteins in seeds from abscisic and not abscisic submitted to shadow or sun were not significantly different, but the results...
