title: [Study on seed determination practice in Polygala tenuifolia].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To control the seed quality market, a study on the seed determination practice in Polygala tenuifolia was carried out.
  
  
  METHODS
  By studying the thousand grain weight moisture content, viability, genuineness, purity and germination percentage, some indices of seeds were fixed to the standards. The seed determination practice in P. tenuifolia was established.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The practice could be utilized to control the seed quality of P. tenuifolia.
