The present investigation was carried out to determine the dairy effluent toxicity on seed germination, morphological and biochemical parameters of Arachis hypogea L. var ICGV9114. Ground nut seeds were germinated with four different concentrations of effluent (25, 50, 75 and 100 ) in the poly cups filled with soil and the seedlings were maintained up to 8 days. Germination percentage, tolerance index and vigour index decreased significantly except in 25 concentration when compared to control. On the contrary phytotoxicity decreased at 25 concentration of the effluent. The length of the plumule and radicle decreased significantly as the concentration of the effluent increased except in 25 concentration. The maximum value of fresh weight was observed in 25 concentration, on the contrary the dry weight increased as the concentrations of the effluent increased. The chlorophyll a, b, total chlorophyll and carotenoid content were found to be decreased as the concentration of the effluent increased except in 25 concentration. The protein, carbohydrate content was found to be decreased in root-shoot axis; however it increased in endosperm as the concentration of the effluent increased except in 25 concentration. The phenol content was found to be decreased both in root-shoot axis and endosperm as the concentration of the concentration of the effluent increased.
