The objective of the present investigation was to study the effect of fungicides and their combination with insecticides on germination, emergence rate and yield of seed maize. Trials were conducted during 1987 and 1988 and included four contact fungicide compounds - tiram (Radotiram 'TS, Evershield Thiram), karboksin (Vitavax), pentachloronitrobenzen (Evershield RTU-PCNB) - and their combinations with insecticides A-7457 C (Promet), Metiokarb (Mesurol WP-50), captan Q malation (Evershield Captan Malathion). The trial included two treatments: a) seed of single-cross hybrid ZPSC 704 (dent type of kernel) and b) seed of three-way cross hybrid ZPTC 196 (flint type of kernel). Studies were conducted in field and laboratory conditions. Fungicides in combination with insecticides were found to disturb germination. If pure fungicides were applied, seed germination was higher or comparable to control.
