EFFECT OF ORGANIC AND INORGANIC PELLETING MATERIALS AND STORAGE ENVIRONMENT ON VIABILITY AND VIGOUR OF CHILLI SEEDS DURING STORAGES
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 51
Abstract
A laboratory experiment was conducted in factorial completely randomized design with four repetition in the laboratory of Seed Science and Technology, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh from 8th June to 21st February, 2015-16 to study the effect of different, seed pelleting on seed quality in chilli [ Capsicum annum L.] during four storage periods (2, 4, 6, 8 month of storage). With regards to different seed pelleting treatments, (Thiram (3 g/kg) + Imidacloprid (600 g/lit) helped to maintain higher germination, speed of germination, seedling length, seedling dry weight, strong, seed vigour index (length) and seed vigour index (mass) at the end of eight month of storage period.
