Abstract: All the contents of Extractable heavy metal like Pb, Cu, Zn and Cd in limestone slagged wasteland are higher than those in contrapositive soil nearby. The slag filtrate has no effect on seed germination rate of Mung beans, Broad beans and Corns but restrains their germination vigor and protraction of hypocotyls with root restraint rate exceeding 30-50%; While it has an apparent effect on germination rate and germination vigor of sensitive seeds like Beans with P=0.05. Simulate to plant the 4 different seeds in pot for a month, Test groups have a lower data in total leaf area, plant height and weight but a much higher content of protective materials like PRO and MDA in biochemical mensuration experiment compared with CK group. The experiment indicates that High content of heavy metal is one of the main restraining factor that affects the settlement, growth and reproduction of plants on limestone slagged wasteland.
