What are the Effects of contaminants on germination of seeds?

Ussually detergents will have adverse effects on the germinations of seeds since it will interfere with the natural growth process of the seeds. However it is if importance to know the amount of detergents used, since the concentration of the detergent and the substance that the detergetns contain really determine whether it will either have positive or adverse impacts on the germination of the seeds. This has to do with the concentration of the detergent and the type of deterget used. If for example a detergent is used that contains phosphate, high concentrations of the phosphate detergent is will be toxic for the seedlings and thus have adverse effects on the germination of the seeds. It will interfere with the natural growth process of the seedlings and thus seeds will not germinate or only a very little amount of seeds will germinate. However, if a low concentration of phosphate is used (e.g. 0.1%) it will act as a fertilizer for the seeds, and speed up the rate at which the seeds will germinate. Seeds usually will initially require high amounts of phoshorus, thus it will boost its germination. However, then again in later stages when the seedling have become plants, additional phosphate is not needed anymore and will have no effect or even again adverse effects.
