Evaluation on the growth response of Peanut (<i>Arachis hypogaea</i>) and Sorghum (<i>Sorghum bicolor</i>) to crude oil contaminated soil
This study examined the cytotoxic response, germination, survival, morphological deviations as well as enzyme activities of Arachis hypogaea and Sorghum bicolor in crude oil contaminated soil. Crude oil spillage was simulated to achieve 1%, 2%, 3% (w/w) contamination levels in pot experiments. Trea...
