Pot experiments in random block design were conducted with different proportions of fly ash added to the soil to assess the effect of fly ash and carbonated fly ash on various growth parameters, biochemical content and antioxidant activities of Vigna radiata and Vigna mungo. Observations suggested normal seed germination in fly ash treated plants. No visible symptoms of either nutrient deficiency or phytotoxicity were observed in any case. Significant positive (p≤ 0.01) correlations between heavy metals concentration in the soil and physical growth as well as photosynthetic pigments indicates the stimulating effect of fly ash on various growth parameters like length, fresh and dry weight of roots and shoots, germination rate and chlorophyll content. The increase in the activity of antioxidative enzymes and antioxidants synthesis in plants with higher doses of carbonated fly ash is indicative of plant’s ability to tolerate heavy metal toxicity. Thus, soil application of carbonated fly ash has the potential not only for improving their production but also for solving their disposal problem.<br>  <br>  <b><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Keywords;</span></b> Carbonated fly ash, antioxidants, germination, growth, heavy metals.</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br></span></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="art-content-layout"> <div class="art-content-layout-row"> <div class="art-layout-cell" style="width: 50%" > <p><a href="../../archive/april-2014-vol-43.html" target="_self">Return to Content</a>   View <span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: -webkit-left; font-size: small;"><a href="http://www.gjournals.org/GJAS/GJAS%20Pdf/2014/April/021114104%20Muduli%20et%20al.pdf" target="_self">[Full Article - PDF]</a>   </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: -webkit-left; font-size: small;"><a href="http://gjournals.org/GJAS/Publication/2014/April/HTML/021114104%20Muduli%20et%20al.htm" target="_self">[Full Article - HTML]</a><span style="font-size: small;">         <a href="http://gjournals.org/GJAS/Publication/2014/April/EPUB/021114104%20Muduli%20et%20al.epub" target="_self">[Full Article - EPUB]</a></span></span><font face="Arial Unicode MS"><font class="small" style="font-size: 9pt;"><b> <a style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51); text-decoration: underline;" href="http://gjournals.org/GJAS/GJAS%20Pdf/2014/April/021114104%20Muduli%20et%20al.pdf" target="_self"></a></b></font></font> <br></p> </div><div class="art-layout-cell" style="width: 50%" > <p><br></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="art-content-layout"> <div class="art-content-layout-row"> <div class="art-layout-cell" style="width: 100%" > <p><span style="font-weight: bold; color: #000000;">Reference:</span><br></p><p><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0.25in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span lang="EN-IN" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000;">ASTM C618-08, (2008), Standard specification for coal fly ash and raw or calcined natural pozzolan for use as a material admixture in concrete ASTM Annual Books.
