The experiment is laid out in CRD with 3 replicates in 27 pots . Data have been collected on plant height ,stem diameter ,shoot wt , shoot DM , root length and root shoot ratio .The addition of Cd has a significant deleterious effect on all the properties except root/shoot ratio , while the O M has a significant effect on plant height and Root length only . There is a significant interaction between some properties | ||
