Abstract

This research was conducted at Sakha Agric. Exp Station, Seed Technology Research Department, Field Crops ResearchInstitute, ARC, Giza, Egypt, during the period between 2018 and 2019 seasons, to evaluate the effect of packaging materials and pre-storage treatments on viability of wheat seed. The experimental design was a split- plot design with four replications. Seed samples were treated with malathion, phosphine, ficus powder and extract, clove powder and extract, camphor powder and extract and cupper nano -particles powder. Treated seeds were stored under open storage conditions for six months in Jute, Plastic and Polyethylene packages. The results revealed that, the type of package and treatments could provide special protection against seed deterioration namely; seed germination and seedling characters. The malathion and phosphine treatments could save the stored seed from the damage caused by insects, while cupper nano- particles treatment had a positive effect of controlling seed deterioration (germination capacity and seedling vigor). On the other hand, an experiment including similar treatments of the current research might be done to examine deteriorations which might take place to seeds stored for longer time (18 month).
