Studies on the marine actinobacterial diversity in the Palk Strait coastal region
of Bay of Bengal

Abstract :

Industrial waste water is being used for irrigation in dry areas and agricultural lands. These effluents not only contain nutrients that enhance the growth of crop plants but also have other toxic materials. An experiment was carried out to study the effect of sago effluent on germination and growth behaviour of blackgram varieties such as VBN-2, VBN- 1, T - 9 ,Co-\$ and TMV-1. The analysis of the effluent showed high concentration of BOD, COD, solids, dissolved solids and chloride. The result obtained after germination showed that the lower concentrations (2.5 and 5%) of effluent increased the germination. At higher concentrations (above 50%) of the effluent, no germination was observed. The highest seedling length was observed in the variety, VBN-2 (33.50cm) at 2.5% effluent concentration and lowest seedling length was observed in TMV - 1 (15.35cm) variety at 50% effluent concentration. The variety, sqrt(B) * N - 27 is tolerant to the sago effluent in all concentrations studied, than the other varieties on the basis of germination and seedling growth performance. The biochemical contents were also increased in the lower concentration of effluent in all the varieties studied. Hence, it is recommended that the farmers in and around the sago factory can cultivate the blackgram variety, VBN-2 in the effluent concentration up to 5% per cent.
