Abstract

The Botanic Garden of Modena and the Casentine Forest National Park recently promoted an integrated in situ/ex situ conservation project. Researchers aimed to propagate certain plant species that grow in the Park, which have specific protection requirements on account of their phyto-geographic importance. These species are: Hieracium villosum L., Saxifraga oppositifolia L., Saxifraga paniculata Miller, Saxifraga moschata Wulfen. In this work, we present some useful treatments for bypassing the natural dormancy of the seeds/achenes and for improving in vitro germination and growth.
