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 contents of total proteins in seeds from abscisic and not abscisic submitted to shadow or sun were not significantly different, but the results... |
