Allelopathic potential of Gleichenella pectinata (Willd.) Ching on weed plant species

Allelopathic Potential of Various Plant Species on Downy Brome: Implications for Weed Control in Wheat Production

Allelopathy, the ability of plants to inhibit germination of other plants, is an untapped resource for weed control in crops that could revolutionize organic crop production. The main objective of the study was to evaluate allelopathic potential of various plant species on downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.), a major pest of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). To screen for potential allelopathy, plants...

Allelopathic Potential of Aerial Parts from Mikania scandens (L.) Willd

The present study aimed the evaluation of allelopathic effect of hydroalcoholic extract from the aerial parts of Mikania scandens (L.) Willd. (Asteraceae); against the germination and radicle growth of Cicer arietinum and Triticum aestivum seeds. The extract at different concentrations was incubated in controlled conditions with the surface sterilized seeds of C. arietinum and T. aestivum and o...

allelopathic potential of alfalfa shoot aqueous extract on germination and seedling growth of four weed species

the allelopathic potential of different concentrations (0, 5 %, 10 %, 20 % and 40%) of medicago sativa shoot extracts were assayed on germination and radicle growth of four weed species( amaranthus hybridus, amaranthus albus, solanum nigrum and chenopodium album) in a laboratory experiment as completely randomized factorial with 3 replications. the results showed that, final germination percent...

Allelopathic Potential of Invasive Plantago virginica on Four Lawn Species

Plantago virginica L. has invaded many lawn ecosystems in the Eastern part of China. The invasion has incurred an economic cost to remove them. In order to prevent the invasion, it is critical to understand the invasive mechanisms of this species. However, few studies have been conducted on the allelopathic mechanisms of its invasion. In this study, we examined allelopathic effects of P. virgin...
