However, oil palm seed germination is a rather difficult process, not only to break dormancy, but also because it is long and often reaches lower-than-expected germination rates. Surprisingly, despite the crucial importance of germination for oil palm plantation management, our knowledge is still rather limited, in particular about germinating

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) seed dormancy type
Seed dormancy in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is considered as one of the major causes for low and erratic germination. Oil palm hybrid seeds (dura x pisifera) were subjected to heat

Stimulation of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) seed germination
Unfortunately, the germination of untreated oil palm seeds takes more than 8 months and germination is unreliable and the percentage rarely exceeds 60%. Heat treatment and scarification methods are used routinely in Oil Palm nurseries to improve germination and survival of Oil Palm (Myint et al., 2010). Germination difficulties are major

Pre-Germination Treatments: Enhancing Seed Germination
1. Soaking Seeds. Soaking seeds is a widely used pre-germination treatment that helps kickstart the germination process. This treatment involves immersing seeds in water for a specific duration, allowing water absorption and softening of the seed coat. Soaking can effectively overcome physical seed dormancy and promote rapid germination.

High-temperature Pre-treatment and the Germination of Seed of the Oil Palm,
Abstract. Germination experiments have shown that oil palm seeds require heattreatment before they germinate. The heat-treatment is in some ways analogous to low-temperature stratification of temperate seed, as it may be applied as a pretreatment, even at a moisture content too low for germination to occur.

Oil palm is an oil-producing crop of major importance at the global scale. Oil palm mesocarp lipids are used for myriads industrial applications, and market demand has been growing for decades. In addition, oil palm seeds are oleaginous, and the oil extracted therefrom can be used for several purposes, from food to cosmetics. As such, there is a huge need in oil palm seeds to maintain the

The maximum germination of oil palm seeds varies with the duration of heat treatment, and with the exception of cultivar BRS C2528, heat treatment may be less than 80 days. Under natural conditions the germination of oil palm seeds may take years, and it is usually uneven and has a very low rate. To increase the germination rate it is necessary to break the dormancy, through heat-treatment (HT
