Description The effect of Hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) an organochlorine insecticide and Agrocure (Pseudomonas Iralucida)
on germination of groundnut seeds was tesled in presence of HCH In soil. Groundnut seeds were sensitive to HCH and showed
marked reduction in germination percentage and seedling vigor index. thereby indicated phytotoxicity. A number of abnormalities
were detected In seedlings at different concentrations of the chemical. Simultaneous Inoculation 01 HCH treated soil with a HCH
degrading organism Pseudomonas ptm MTCC 3671 strain protected the groundnut seedlings. The inoculated organisms grew and
multiplied well utilizing HCH In soli and accelerated HCH degradation.
