Allelopathic Potential of Selected Weeds Extract on Germination and Growth of Borreria stachydea (DC.)
Keywords:
Allelopathic, weeds, germination, growthAbstract
The uses of paraquat chemicals as weedicide in agriculture soil have causes the loss of natural habitats, food, and pollution of environment, risk of human health, animals and contamination of water body. This research aimed to study the allelopathic effect of aqueous extract of Sesbania sesban (L.), Rhynchosia minima L, Indigofera hirsuta L, Tephrosia vogelli F and Crotalaria retusa L on seed germination and growth of Borreria stachydea (DC.) using in-vitro and in vivo methods at different concentrations 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. From, the results obtained, the extracts of I. hirsuta L and S. sesban (L.) had higher inhibitory effect at 20% concentration, than that of T. vogelli F, Crotalaria retusa L. and R. minema L on growth parameters of B. stachydea (DC.) when compared with control. In laboratory, most toxic plant extract against B. stachydea (DC.) was S. sesban (L.). Therefore mixed extract of these plant could be used in management of weed in order to reduce the use of synthetics herbicides in agricultural land for the control of weeds. Farmers should allow these five species with allelopathic properties to growth closed to cultivated crops.
