Abstract


The effect of the aqueous extracts of the following dried weeds: yellow melilot (Melilitus indica), annual blue grass (Poa annua), bind weed (Convolvulus arvensis), field marigold (Calendula arvensis) and buckhorn plantain (Plantago lanceolata) on the germination and root growth of wheat (Triticum sp.) and chickling vetch (Lathyrus sativus) were evaluated. The 0.2% concentration of the yellow melilot, bind weed and annual blue grass extracts reduced wheat seedlings root growth by 93, 47 and 36%, respectively. Aqueous extract of field marigold at 0.5% increased wheat seedlings root growth by 10% in comparison with the control. In addition the same concentration had an inhibitory effect on chickling vetch root growth by 37%. The extract of buckhorn plantain at 0.5% reduced root growth of wheat by 10% and chickling vetch by 45%. The inhibitory effect of the extracts was proportional to their concentration.
