AB  - Delivery of micronutrients to plants through seed priming
improves seedling vigour and increases crops yields. Two-year
filed trial was conducted in Pančevo, Serbia, with aim to study the
effect of seed priming with zinc (Zn) on field performance of three
maize hybrids on calcareous chernozem deficient in plant available
Zn. Seed priming treatments were: control (without priming),
water priming and priming with 4 mM zinc sulphate water solution.
Seed priming had significant effect on early plant growth,
plant height, yield components, grain yield and grain Zn concentration.
Zn-priming promoted plant growth and increased final plant
height. Across two growing seasons with contrasting precipitation
and three tested maize hybrids, Zn-priming resulted in an average
increase of grain yield by about 18% compared to control, and by
about 8.4% compared to water priming. A significant relationship
between plant growth parameters, grain yield components and
grain yield was detected. Grain Zn concentration was increased by
Zn-priming in two hybrids in the season with less precipitation and
in one hybrid in the second season. The results imply that using the
seeds with elevated Zn content can improve overall field performance
of maize grown on calcareous chernozem.
