title: The effect of altitude and closed cone (seed) age on germination in red pine (<i>Pinus brutia</i> Ten.)
abstract: This study investigated changes in the germination rate and germination percentage of seeds obtained from closed pine cones ( Pinus brutia Ten.) of different ages collected at different altitudes. The seeds used in the study were obtained from closed cones (3/control, 4, 5, 6, and 7 years old) in the lower (0-200 m) and higher (800-1000 m) altitude zones of the Mersin-Anamur region in a section from the sea to the interior. The seeds germinated in the dark at a constant temperature of 20 °C for
