e1“the activities of catalase and superoxide dismutase were depressed in the root of groundnut grown in nickel contaminated soil”
e4“However a dose dependent increase of the activities of these enzymes were observed with the groups co-treated with iron”

- Intervention effect Nickel contamination depressed catalase and superoxide dismutase activities in groundnut roots relative to the control.
- Intervention effect At 75 ppm iron, catalase and superoxide dismutase activities in groundnut roots showed no significant difference from the control.
- Intervention effect Nickel significantly reduced groundnut root weight.
- Intervention effect Iron treatment produced a steady increase in groundnut root weight.
