Abstract: The present investigation was carried out to evaluate and compare the effects two weed on the germination indices and seedling growth of Vigna radiata (Green gram) and Vigna mungo (Black gram). Fresh weight and dry weight of tested plant samples were also determined. Differential inhibitory effect was observed for two weed plants on two tested crops. Germination energy, speed of emergence, germination index, coefficient ratio of germination and seed vigour index of all the extracts treated sets decreased as compared to control sets. But mean germination time and phytotoxicity were increased in all the treated sets.
Keywords: Allelochemicals, Germination, Seedling growth.
Title: Allelopathic potential of weed extracts on seed germination and seedling growth of Vigna radiata L. Wilzek and Vigna mungo L.
