Abstract
The present study was carried out in relation to treatment of the seeds Cicer arietinum and Zea mays with various concentrations of fungicides. Effect of fungicides on the seed germination, growth and biomass production of Cicer arietinum and Zea mays were observed in vitro. The fungicides (i.e. Captan, Bavistin, Domarck, Blitox and Sitara) solution for growing the seeds with the following concentrations were used; 1 ppm, 10 ppm, 50ppm and 100 ppm were taken to observe their growth promoting/ inhibiting effects on the Maize and gram seeds on their germination and growth (radicle and plumule). The data obtained indicates that germination percentage of seeds and biomass production were slightly affected with the differences in the two crops under investigation. The fungicide Bavistin (Carbendazim) at 10 ppm concentration was the best among the treatments of Cicer arietinum while in case of Zea mays, 1ppm concentration of Bavistin (Carbendazim) has shown better stimulating effect on the seed germination and plant growth (radicle and plumule) as compared to Control. Significant differences in the growth values of seeds between treated and control plants were observed.
