Une estimation grossière de la germination des semences ingérées ou non d'Acacia révèle que l'ingestion par de grands herbivores permet la germination d'un plus grand nombre de semences. Full physiological development of seeds, indicated by maximum seed dry weight, was reached 82 days after anthesis; however, maximum percent germination was not reached before day 89. seeds was related to seed development. Seeds treated with dry heat were set to germinate in petri-dishes under laboratory conditions. Summary. 33:1137–1144.

Hayne is considered as an important dryland tree species in Africa and Middle East, and establishing an effective and efficient seed-germination method is considered necessary for producing planting materials. L'ingestion des gousses d'Acacia par des mammifères herbivores en captivité a entraîné une destruction substancielle des semences. Soaking Acacia seed in water below about 40°C is effective in promoting germination only in those seeds which already have a permeable seed coat (soft seeds).
