Abstract: The present storage experiment was conducted at Seed Unit, University of Agricultural Sciences Raichur, Karnataka during 2016-2017 on soybean cv. JS 335 seeds were treated with different fungicides along with polymer (5 ml kg-1) and were subjected for seed quality in order to know the influence of fungicides along with polymer on quality parameters were evaluated from 0 to 9 months of storage under laboratory condition, combi-fungicides carbendazim 25% + mancozeb 75% @ 3 g per kg of seed was recorded significantly higher seed quality parameters viz., germination (69.67 %), peak value of germination (22.36), root length (12.03 cm), shoot length (9.83 cm), seedling length (21.86 cm), seedling dry weight (111.1 mg), seedling vigour index-I (1524) and seedling vigour index-II (7747) at the end of nine months of storage period as compared to control.
