Abstract
A study was performed to evaluate capability of aquatic macrophyte plants to combat oxidative stress caused by tannery effluent treatment. For this purpose, tannery effluent was collected from Up flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) Jajmau, Kanpur. Plants of were exposed to various concentrations of tannery effluent (0.0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%) for 2 and 7 days durations. Plants accumulated significant (p
