Physiological and Growth Responses of Castor (Ricinus Communis L) Under Cadmium Stressed Environment

Cadmium (Cd) is considered as phytotoxic in nature, its toxicity on the plant development decrease antioxidative enzymes activities under stress environment. Castor (Ricinus Communis L.) a metal tolerant and ability to survive highly polluted soils. exhibited high level of Cd soil buildup antioxidants i.e., super oxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) malondialdehyde (MAD) top ground parts stress. grown treated for 30 days various levels 0, 10, 25 50 mg kg-1 treatments. Stress caused by heavy effects reduced growth, biomass, castor respectively 25- against control treatment. Our results indicated that significantly enhanced contents root, stem leaves. The POD SOD enzyme were increased 215.30 µmol/g-1 53.20 U/g control. While, MAD chlorophyll content 3.11% 0.48%, proline 2.23 1.75 µg-1 decreased According Pearson’s correlation our research work exposed strongly positive relationship with shoot, malionaldihyde. Although destructive was demonstrated PoD activities. Hence, this study recommended can grow soils phytoremediation
