Abstract |
Pollution is an undesirable change in the physical chemical and biological characteristics of our air water and soil that may or will harmfully affect human or plant life. The term pollution be restricted to certain human activities for instance affluent industrialized countries are dumping a lot a materials and waste in their immediate environment. Being non degradable the heavy metals persist in the environment and accumulate in living organisms through food chain some heavy metals such as manganese are normal constituents of living organisms but becomes hazardous when their presence exceeds a certain level.

Introduction |
Environment is the surroundings in which we live but the contamination of our environment by pollutants is environment pollution. The current stage of the earth that we are seeing is the cause of centuries of exploitation of earth and its resources. The earth can not restore its balance because of environmental pollution. Environmental pollution is the contamination of the physical and biological components of the earth/atmosphere system to such an extent that normal environmental processes are adversely affected. Pollution is the introduction of contaminates in to the natural environment that cause adverse change. Pollution can take the form of chemical substances or pollutants.

Objective of study | This is study the problem of environmental pollution by heavy metals has attracted much attention in recent years. The metals have density greater than 5 gm cm-3 and atomic number greater than 23 are accumulated in to the environment through various human activities such as discharge through industrial effluent/emission use of fertilizers automobile exhaust etc. |

Review of Literature | Grieve and Flateher (1976) studies the distribution of heavy metals Mn, Co, Cu, Zn, Pb, Ni, Fe in the river draser (Canada) Geo chemical maps and statistical analysis disclose close relationships between trace metal concentration. Petterson (1976) studied the uptake by heavy metal by various plant parts in case of cucumber, oat, tomato and wheat. Lag and Elsokkary (1978) studies the presence of certain heavy metals in some crops grown in industrially polluted soils at oddo. Kozak and Tarkowaki (1979) studies magnese copper zinc iron and magnesium contents at different growth stages of tritloale wheat and rye. Niemtur et al (1979) observed the presence of some heavy metals in the needles of 3 pins species from area of a zinc work. The ash content and Mn, Zn, Pb, Cu, Cd and Fe in Pinus nigra, Pinus Strobus were determined, Taylor (1979) studied the distribution of eleven heavy metals (Mn, Pb, cd, Cr, Co, Cu, ng, Ni Ag v and Zn) in coastal sediments extending from Scottish border to the wash. Fytianos et. al (1986) investigated the distribution of heavy metals in several rivers and lakes of Northern Greece, Samples of surface water were collected once a month from rivers and lakes over the period of 1983-84. Kozak and Terkowaski (1979) studied Magnese iron and magnesium contents at different growth stage of triticale wheat and rye. Memon and Yatazawa (1982) reported that extraction of Mn from plants may provide information concerning the chemical from in which it is bound in sensitive and tolerant plant Bhargava and Singh (1982) found that seedling growth of certain cucurbits cereals and legume was promoted at lower concentration and inhibited at higher concentration. Goel (1992) studied the physiological effects of polluted river water containing heavy metals on certain legumes, cucurbits and cereals. Result have shown the increased growth in presence of lower doses and discussed growth in presence of higher dloses. |

Conclusion |
The studies on the effect of pretreatment of heavy metal Mn carried on yield of Zea Mays CV. Golden hybrid. Result show that there is
retardation of yielding growth in presence of higher concentration of Mn and acceleration of growth and yield is the lower concentration of same metal. |
