The study compares eight germination media, varying MS salt, sucrose and agar concentrations. The next stage assesses growth at three sucrose concentrations without added growth regulators. The abstract gives germination results after 49 days and development over the next 105 days. The abstract was available, so detailed procedures and acclimatisation were not verified.
