Allelopathic response of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) straw on germination and growth of selected weed species.

摘要: The present study was conducted to determine the allelopathic effect of wheat straw on three weed species, viz. Chenopodium album L., Boerhavia diffusa L. and Parthenium hysterophorus Straw treatments linearly decreased germination length roots shoots test weeds relative controls. At higher concentrations leachates, seed least affected in most under burned unburned treatments, whereas, at lower (25%) treatment, it remained similar water control. Seedling growth less concentrations. Thus, management practices should be considered when developing an integrated program.
