Popis: The ageing process of corn seeds is an important economical and quality factor in corn growing, therefore the study of the impact of factors that influence the quality of the seeds during the storage period as well as their interaction has to be carried out in order to improve the process of storing seeds. Different types of methods can limit the ageing process and expand the storing period, such as treatments applied to seeds in order to reduce the fungal, bacterial and other infestations as well as monitorig and creating a constant environment in the storage facilities, but a great influence in the storage capacity of corn seeds is due to the bilogical material, the corn hybrids.
