The germination behaviour of seeds in polluted water soil extracts was found to be identical, only a few species behaved differently. Prostopis juliflora, haloxylon recurcum , accia Senegal showed best germination in the two conditions but prostopis juliflora was the most resistant to pollution . in suaeda fruticosa no germination took place in the control treatment where as highest germination (70%) was seen in treatment with polluted soil extract of EPLABLEPHARIS surdica showed stimulating effect of polluted water on germination , whereas low germination was observed when their seeds were
