NB-contained nanocomposites impact on seeds mycoflora and growth parameters of maize seedlings
Keywords:
nanocomposites, corn, seeds mycoflora, growth parameters, storage.Abstract
The article presents the results of lab studies on the influence of nanocomposites based on saponites on seed damage by phytopathogenic fungi and growth parameters of maize seedlings on mid-season hybrid Kharkivskiy 340MV. The high efficiency of nanocomposites against fungi of Penicillium and Fusarium genera was established, and the stimulating effect of nanocomposites on maize seedlings growth and development was noted.
The stimulation of seed vigor and laboratory germination was observed on average by 10 %, and growth parameters (length of root system and seedling) increased by 50-70 % compared to the control.
It was noted that the percentage of maize kernels affected by fungi in variants using nanocomposites decreased in comparison with the control variant by an average of 7-14 %.
