Pau-kala (Argemone glauca)

Argemone glauca seeds. These specific seeds were used in seed salinity tolerance study to improve our understanding of coastal plant species tolerance to projected increases in salinity exposure at the early ontogenetic stage of seed germination. Argemone glauca var. glauca was collected for the CPC IMLS RIN study. Imaged in the NTBG Seed Lab by Raffaela Abbriano. Photo Credit: Raffaela Abbriano, NTBG Seed Lab
