Abstract: |
In the present study, impact of domestic waste water (sewage) on seed germination parameters of rice and wheat were studied. Use of sewage for irrigation purposes has emerged an important way to utilize its nutrients and removal of its pollution load by growing tolerant plant species. A two way analysis of variance showed that, the difference in rate of seed germination was statistical significant among different concentration of treatment (F1 = 250.71 & 80.27) as well as between different time period of incubation (F2 = 8.96 & 4.5) for both rice and wheat respectively. The effect of sewage on seedling A growth was significant at various concentrations of sewage (F1= 81.65 & 78.17) as well as between different period of incubation (F2 = 30.04 & 26.36) for both rice and wheat respectively.. One way analysis of variance for total chlorophyll content between various concentrations of sewage showed a statistically significant result in both rice (F=270.11) and wheat (F = 1391. 84). Germination efficiency, seedling length, total chlorophyll content was found to be increased with increase in concentration of sewage upto 50% dilution after which it decreases. Thus, the sewage, after proper dilutions can be used as a potential source of water for seed germination and plant growth in agricultural practices. |
