Influence of Fludioxonil+isofenphos-methyl Seed Coating on Wheat Seed Germination
Abstract
Field trials in influence on seed germination and the controlling of disease-and-insect-pests during wheat seedling with fludioxonil+isofenphos-methyl seed coating were performed. The experimental results showed that fludioxonil+ isofenphos-methyl seed coating had no harmful effect on the germination of wheat seed, by contraries, it can promote the germination of wheat seed and it was more safely than conventional seed coatings. The treatment of 1∶20∶400(coating: water: seed) displayed well prevention effect on the control of wheat root-diseased and underground pests during wheat seedling growth, the percentage of prevention was up to 94.4 % to root-diseased and was 100 % to underground pests; the second was the treatment of 1∶20∶500(coating: water: seed), its percentage of prevention to root-diseased and to underground pests was up to 89.8 % and 97.4 %, respectively. So, fludioxonil+isofenphos-methyl seed coating was a kind of good alternative seed coating and worth popularizing in the course of wheat production. In views of prevention effect and use costs, the reasonable and economical dosage should be 1∶20∶500 (coating: water: seed).
