Abstract
The given topic was selected by me as I found this to be achallenging task to complete and also very important
knowledge to gain from it. It is nowadays noticed that in the pollution is increasing in our environment, and it is
extremely important for all of us to know its effects on ourselves and the naturalsurroundings. Plants are the only
source to purify our atmosphere and provide food to this world. Even the carnivorous animals are indirectly
dependent on plants for their food.
It is very important for us to know the best way of living in this universe without harming it and ultimately living
peacefully. Therefore, I have selected this topic as my project as it gives the answers to my questions.

Main Objective:
To study the effect of fertiliser, manure and polythene on the growth of the hypocotyl of a seed.
Specific Objective:
Through continuous observation of the growth of plants in fertiliser, manure and polythene the most suitable soil
conditions for a typical plant can be observed. By observing such soil conditions, the productivity and growth of
plants can be checked.

Three anthocyanins were found in Vignaradiata (greengram) accessions with black seed coat, but were absent in
cultivars having green seed coat. Vignamungo (blackgram) had only one of them. The same 3 anthocyanins were
found in cultivars with purple red hypocotyl of Vignaradiata accessions but were absent in the ones with green
hypocotyls.Vignamungo with purple red hypocotyls showed the presence of two anthocyanins.
One common to both was identified as delphinidin3glucoside and the other is probably cyanidin3glucoside.
Among the two accessions of Vignaradiatavarsublobata examined, one was similar to Vignaradiata accessions
with black seed coat having delphinidin3glucoside and two other anthocyanins, while the other resembled
Vignamungo having only delphinidin3glucoside in seed coat and both delphinidin and cyanidin3glucosides in
hypocotyl.
Chlorophyll content of the seed coats was in the following decreasing order: green, black, brown and yellow.
Browning of the seed coat of cv TAP7 after storage over a year was associated with reduction in chlorophyll
content
Materials
1) Pots 3
2) Gram seeds – 1012
3) Fertiliser
4) Manure
5) Polythene

7) Soil
Methodology
During the Making of this project, the following steps were followed:
• Pots, gram seeds, along with fertiliser, manure and polythene and other materials were brought and the pots
were prepared to be sown.

• Seeds were planted and watered. Fertiliser was added to the first pot, named as ‘Pot A’. Observations were
recorded for that day.
• Manure was added to the second pot, named as ‘Pot B’ the next day.
• Polythene was added to the third pot, named as ‘Pot C’ the following day, and regular observations were made.
• Watering and regular observation was being taken for 27 days.
• After the observation of plants and their growth, observation was compiled and data analysis was made.
• Conclusion was drawn from the data analysis for the three cases of planted gram seeds

Data Analysis

According to the above observations, the following analysis was made:
Due to access of fertiliser, some plants in POT A died.

Due to lack of water for some continued days, some plants had dried.
Seeds germinated in POT C died soon because of polythene present in the pot, which hampered their proper
absorption of nutrients.
Plants in POT B were best grown in height and persisted for a long time.
Growth of plants planted in POT A was medium all over and can be considered as average.
Water consumption by the gram seeds was considerably low.
Conclusion
From the above data analysis, following conclusions can be drawn:
Access of fertiliser can be harmful for germinating seeds. However, if used in an appropriate amount, fertilisers
can be beneficial for plants.
Growth of plants can be observed best in manure, as it is a natural extract, and can supply better quality of
nutrients to the plants.
Presence of polythene is harmful for plants, and it hampers the pathway for the plants’ absorption of nutrients.
Therefore, it can be concluded that pollution can be very harmful to the natural environment and, ultimately it
affects the humans.
Lack of water is extremely undesirable when plants or trees are growing, as water is an essential part of their
nutrition and is important in the developmental process
Recommendation
Through the observations recorded and conclusion drawn from the collected data, it is clear that, planters should
use manure the most in amount for the proper growth of plants. Fertilizers are also extremely useful for the
growth of plants, but, if used in excess amount, then it can be harmful for the plants. Therefore, the amount of
fertilizers used should be checked.
Also pollutants, such as polythene, should be removed from the planting area, as these pollutants are harmful for
the growth of plants and hampers their proper elongation. Also, regular watering is an essential criterion for
growing plants, because this provides them with necessary elements and compounds for photosynthesis. At the
same time, excess of water should not be provided to the plants, because of the probability of contamination.
