Abstract
Standard germination tests at 20°c showed that seed of wheat and barley treated with the fungicides captan, captan + fuberidazole, thiram, carboxin, and carboxin + thiram at rates of 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4% active ingredient could be safely stored for up to 12 months after treatment without any adverse effects on germination. Germination of barley seed treated with carboxin and carboxin + thiram was significantly reduced after 18 months' storage, and the germination of captan‐treated wheat seed was significantly reduced after 24 months' storage. When germination temperatures were reduced from 20°c to 15°c and 10°c the germination of both cereals declined after storing treated seed for 18 and 24 months. Germination failures were due to an increase in the number of abnormal seedlings, mainly premature splitting of the coleoptile. Vigour of treated wheat seed, as determined by seedling plumule length, increased during the first 3 months' storage, then declined slowly until 24 months' storage, by which time vigour was significantly decreased. Seed treatment did not significantly affect the vigour of fungicide‐treated stored barley seed.
