Viability Assessment of Genipa americana L. (Rubiaceae) Embryonic Axes after Cryopreservation Using In Vitro Culture

Figure 3

Viability of Genipa americana L. embryonic axes after desiccation and/or cryopreservation. Embryos were excised from seeds desiccated to different water contents (●, −LN₂) or seeds that were desiccated and subsequently cryopreserved overnight (918 hours) in liquid nitrogen (, +LN₂). Germination data was analyzed using analysis of variance (Two-Way ANOVA); mean comparison was carried out using Bonferroni test. value < 0.0001. Bars represent SEM.
