Assessing sacha inchi germination under different
substrates, Rosa and Quijada (2013) found 70% and 3.0 as
maximum germination rate and GSI, when moss was used as
substrate. These values are low compared with values obtained
in our study, when paper roll (88% and 4.5) and between
papers (80% and 3.6) were used. Thus, these substrates show
up as more suitable for sacha inchi seed germination.
