Some fungicides, at experimental level, have been tested to control the storage fungi.
Those fungicides were apllied as dust or wet (slurry) treatments. The main objective of
this study was to determine the performance of Benomyl and Captan as dust and slurry
treatments.
Benomyl had a better performance when applied as dust treatment, since at 120 days
the germination of the dust treated seed (64%) was significantly different from the germination
of the slurry treated seed (53%). However the seed treated with Captan,
either as a dust or slurry treatment did not show any significative differences in germination.
The fungicida! residues on the seeds did not allow the growth of storage fungi
when the seeds were plated on agar.
