“…are examples of EF4 species that co-occurred with B. rockii on Huelo Islet before that species was extirpated there, whose seeds have deep MPD and intermediate or deep PD, respectively (Wolkis et al, 2018;Baskin et al, 2021). Seeds of D. sandwicensis reached 50% germination at 20/10°C and 20/15°C in 20 weeks (Wolkis et al, 2018), and those of O. anthyllidifolia reached 50% germination at 25/15°C and 20/10°C in 17 weeks (Baskin et al, 2021). By contrast, we showed that the B. rockii seeds For many exceptional species, cryobiotechnologies (and, to some extent, in vitro propagation) have been the main focus of preservation research (Pritchard, 2018;Pence et al, 2020;Philpott et al, 2022), but the storage of dry seeds at −18°C would be less expensive than cryobiotechnology.…”
