Does anyone know of a source of viable seed of Aponogeton madascariensis
(syn. A. fenestralis)?  We conduct research on the in vitro propagation
(micropropagation)  of aquatic plants.  We are very interested in studying
tuber  formation.  Surface sterilized seed would enable us to establish
cultures more quickly than using buds.  Any help would be appreciated.
