Abstract | ||||
Field trial followed by storage experiment were carried out to evaluate the effect of pesticide types and phosphine fumigation doses on germination and seedling parameters of bread wheat cultivar Misr1 (Triticum aestivum L.). Both actellic and malathion were applied at the recommended concentration. They were sprayed after 120 and 150 days from cultivation in addition to their control. Treated wheat grains were fumigated at the beginning of storage with phosphine at the dosage rate of 0 (untreated grains), 1, 3 and 5 tablet(s)/m3 and stored for six months from the 1st of May 2019 to the 31st of Oct. 2019. The results indicated that using actellic or phosphine fumigation with five tablets m-3 significantly increased final germination percentage, germination speed index, germination energy, root and shoot length, seedling dry weight and seedling vigor index. Meanwhile, the percentage of rotten and sold grains were significantly reduced. Pre-harvest spraying of wheat plants with actellic with post-harvest fumigation of wheat grains with phosphine at five tablets m-3 could be recommended to have the best germination and seedling characters. | ||||
