Abstract

Storage tests were performed in order to define the possible phytotóxic
effects of the fungicides benomyl, captan, carbendazim*m and thíabendazole
on maize seed stored under hermetic conditions. The maize kernels with
moisture contents of 16.9-17.3% were treated with the fungicides, at a rate
of 750 ppm. of active ingredient, and stored for 120 days at 27°C. Benomyl
and thiabendazole had phytotóxic effects. Seeds treated with these fungicides
had lower percentages of germination than the control seeds, and lower
than those treated with captan and carbendazim*m
