Abstract

Despite water hyacinth (Eichhorniacrassipes) has become the world's worst invasive aquatic weed due to its rapid proliferation rate. It has demonstrated abilities to be used as a raw material in various useful applications. In this study, shredded dried water hyacinth was used as biofertilizer for tomato plants. Five concentrations of water hyacinth (10,20,30,40 and 50%) were added to soil consisted of three parts sand and one part peat moss. The 15 days tomato seedlings were collected where; Peroxidase enzyme activity and profiling of nine RAPD primers out of 10 were studied. The enzyme activity was increased in parallel with water hyacinth concentration in the soil. On the other hand the RAPD profiles showed no variations between all treatments and the control.
