Summary of Preliminary Study of Mayapple Seeds

     Mayapple seeds are relatively rare. To do a full blown seed study has not been feasible. I hope that I can purchase seeds that have not been dried as I need them for the portion of my study looking at where in the forest is best for mayapple seed germination.  I have talked to the supplier of the seeds and they assured me that they will reevaluate their mayapple seed storage conditions. 

     At any rate, this poster summarizes my findings. These findings have informed my research decisions and will allow me to better interpret my data.
