Effect of Mercury on Seed Germination and Seedling Growth of Mungbean ( Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek)
Among the toxic elements release in the environment, mercury is considered highly toxic to the growth of plants. The present studies report the effects of different concentrations (1, 3, 5 and 7 mM) of mercury on seed germination and seedling growth performance of mungbea ( Vigna radiata ) as compar...

plants. The increase in concentration of mercury treatment at 7 mM was
found sufficient to cause significant reductions in seedling dry weight
of as compared to control. Mercury treatment at all concentrations
decreased seed germination, shoot, and root length and seedling dry
weight. Increase in mercury concentration upto 7 mM showed highest
percentage of decrease in seed germination (42%), seedling length
(70%), root length (66%) and seedling dry weight (47%) of mungbean as
relation to control. V. radiata were more sensitive to mercury stress
in seedling growth and root elongation than seed germination. The
seedlings of V. radiata showed greater tolerance to mercury at 1 mM
(85.83 %) and lowest at 7 mM (34.13%). These results show that there is
a negative effect towards germination and growth of mungbean by mercury
treatment. Minimum use of the mercury containing compounds in
fungicide, pesticide and nematicide is recommended. Special care should
be taken to monitor the toxic pollutants available in the immediate
environment. The accumulation of such types of toxic pollutants in
larger concentrations by crop can produce harmful effects to crops and
ecosystem as well.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1119-8362</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1119-8362</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.4314/jasem.v19i2.4</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Port Harcourt: World Bank assisted National Agricultural Research Project (NARP) - University of Port Harcourt</publisher><subject>Agriculture ; Beans ; biomass production ; Chlorophyll ; Contamination ; Heavy metals ; Mercury ; Mercury pollution ; mungbean ; Plant growth ; Pollutants ; seed germination ; Seeds ; Toxicity</subject><ispartof>Journal of applied science & environmental management, 2015-06, Vol.19 (2), p.191-191</ispartof><rights>Copyright 2015 - Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management</rights><rights>Copyright Dr. Michael Horsfall Jnr, University of Port Harcourt, Department of Pure and Industrial Chemistry Jun 2015</rights><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-b1821-e9090c5a35af25b852230147381b423cf0c60e0c3cc71a13f92d0ae1dee7f9833</citedby></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,27924,27925,79426</link.rule.ids></links><search><creatorcontrib>MUHAMMAD, ZAFAR IQBQL</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>MARIA, KHAN SIDDIQUI</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>MOHAMMAD, ATHAR</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>MUHAMMAD, SHAFIQ</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>FAROOQI, ZIA-UR-REHMAN</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>MUHAMMAD, KABIR</creatorcontrib><title>Effect of Mercury on Seed Germination and Seedling Growth of Mungbean ( Vigna radiata (L.)
