Influence of maize hybrids and seed size after processing on the physical characteristics of the seeds, germination and races growth

In these studies, the physical and physiological seed properties seedling's vigour in five ZP maize hybrids (ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, ZP4 ZP5) were investigated. Hybrid was divided into small (SF) large fractions (LF) The hybrid combination size did not significantly (p ≥ 0.05) affect germination. Width, thickness, length, weight, dead seeds, abnormal seedling, stem root growth fresh seedling weight influenced by fraction LF produced higher stems 1.18 cm, longer roots 2.94 cm 0.032 g (the average) as compared to SF. influence of on differed 1.9 SF 1.7 seed.
