The difference in the germination of maize hybrids (Zea mays L.)

The quantity and quality of corn yield depends on the maize seeds quality (Zea mays L.). The aim of this experiment was to test the germiation in different maize hybrids under controlled conditions. The experiment was set up with five maize hibryds from the Agricultural Institute Osijek, FAO different groups: OS 298 P, OS Sk 444, OS Sk 494, OS 499, OS Sk 552. During the experiment, the following parameters were monitored: number of germinated seed and seedling mass. The statistical analysis in the average seedlings mass obtained results which showed that the average seedlings weight significantly dependens on the maize hybrids (F=16.139**). Statistically results that is based on seed germination of tested hybrids shows that germination was significantly under hybrids influence (F=49.478**).
