IMPACT OF JUTE MILL WASTE WATER ON SEED GERMINATION AND VIGOUR INDEX OF CICER ARIETINUM L. AND PISUM SATIVUM L.
Journal Title: Journal of Biological and Scientific Opinion - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The main objective of this paper is to determine the effects of jute mill waste water on seed germination and seedling growth of Cicer arietinum and Pisum sativum plants under laboratory conditions. The effect of jute mill waste water was compared to that of control (distilled water). Jute mill waste water at different concentrations (10, 20, 30, 40, 80 and 100 %) influenced the seed germination and vigour index of C. arietinum and P. sativum. It was concluded that jute mill waste water has significantly played a profound role on the germination and growth of seeds and seedlings of Cicer arietinum and Pisum sativum.
