Abstract:Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) is a plant of family Asteraceae native to Asia and is used for ornamental purposes. However, the species has great potential to be grown for biodiesel. The experiment objective was to evaluate safflower initial development subjected to the seeds treatment with fungicide carboxin + Thiram. The experiment was conducted in a protected environment, Maringá University, campus Umuarama, Paraná State, Brazil. Completely randomized design was used with two treatments and ten repetitions. There was no significant difference among treatments for seedling height, however, there was no difference between treatments for shoot dry mass. It was concluded that seed treatment with carboxin + Thiram did not negatively affect seedling development.
