The present investigation was carried out on seedlings evaluation in Nyctanthes arbor-tristis under laboratory condition. During the course of test, the nature of germination was epigeous and the normal and abnormal seedlings were observed 85 and 9 per cent respectively. Eight categories of abnormalities were also found in this species.References
