Summary in the original language of the document
The high germination percentages of the seed samples and the growth of the derived plantlets are the main criteria to assess the quality of seed batches. The seed quality can be evaluated by seed germination tests. In the Council Directive 2002/55/EC of 13 June 2002 on the marketing of vegetable seed is defined that cauliflower and broccoli seeds being sold must exhibit at least 70 % and 75 % germination percentages, respectively.
Summary translation
Le alte percentuali di germinazione dei campioni di semi e la crescita delle piantine derivate sono i criteri principali per valutare la qualità dei lotti di semi. La qualità delle sementi può essere valutata mediante test di germinazione. La Direttiva 2002/55/CE del Consiglio, del 13 giugno 2002, sulla commercializzazione delle sementi di ortaggi stabilisce che le sementi di cavolfiore e di broccolo vendute devono presentare una percentuale di germinazione di almeno il 70% e il 75%, rispettivamente.
