Table 1 Average germination percentage (× ± SD) and T50 (× ± SD) for mature and fresh seeds of A. longifolia and A. mearnsii in scarification treatment. Different labels indicate significant differences in the HSD Tukey test performed between maturation stages for germination percentage and T50 (days)

From: Fire and seed maturity drive the viability, dormancy, and germination of two invasive species: Acacia longifolia (Andrews) Willd. and Acacia mearnsii De Wild
