Fifty seven per cent seed germination at control condition was enhanced up to 63% by continuous tap water washing for 48 h duration. Freshly collected seeds in April did not germinate in May and June. Stem diameter and height of one and 6 months old seedlings were 0.3 cm, 1.2 cm and 1.2 cm, 87.1 cm, respectively.</p> <p>DOI: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/njbs.v2i0.7497">http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/njbs.v2i0.7497</a></p> <p><em>Nepalese Journal of Biosciences </em>2 : 109-112 (2012)</p> ER -
