Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
The action of allelochemicals is diverse and affects a various number of biochemical reactions resulting in modifications of different physiological functions. In this study, the allelopathic effects of Leaves extract of Swallow grass during seed germination and seedling stage as anatomic sampling in three concentrations 0, 70, 140 and 210 mL and in two types of aqueous and alcoholic extracts on seeds of wheat and Sisymbrium irio were studied. The results showed that type of extract made no difference on the traits. But the Analysis of variance of other treatments showed that different concentrations in both plant extracts decreased germination traits. Anatomical results also showed that all traits except root epidermis affected by different concentrations of extracts. In a way that the extracts reduced the thickness of measured traits.
