Perfonnance of Carica papaya L. Seeds under Different Storage Environments
A study on the perfonnance of papaya (Carica papaya L.) seeds under different storage environment was carned out in ambient room (28-30°C; 70-80% RH), air-conditioned (21 22OC; 45-50% RH), refrigerator (3-5°C; 42% RH), and oven (35-38°C; 40% RH) for 30 days. The moisture content of the seeds for ai...
