Abstract

Biological seed treatment using B. polymyxa BG25 and T. harzianum Th05 is one of
efforts to improve seed quality and health in order to carry the seed to many places without
spreading seedborne diseases. This study aimed to improve physical and physiological seed
quality and seed health of hot pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) seed as well as eliminate
seedborne pathogen caused by antracnose disease (C. capsici). The result indicates that seed
treatment with film coating carrying B. polymyxa and T. harzianum can improve physical seed
quality (seeds are more attractive color and shining), physiological quality (increase of
germination capacity, vigor index, maximum growth potential, uniform growth and dry weight
of normal germination) and can reduce of percentage of C. capsici in surface or inside hot
pepper seed. This method can be used to protect hot pepper seed and prevent from spreading
seedborne disease.
