e1“the allelopathic potential of leaf and seed extracts of A. mexicana decreased the seed germination (until 66.66%), plumule length (93.94%-94.94%), and radicle length (96.68%- 96.96%) respectively for T. aestivum and H. vulgare with a rise in extract concentration”

- Intervention effect Leaf and seed extracts of A. mexicana decreased plumule length of T. aestivum and H. vulgare by 93.94% to 94.94%, with rising extract concentration.
- Intervention effect Leaf and seed extracts of A. mexicana decreased radicle length of T. aestivum and H. vulgare by 96.68% to 96.96%, with rising extract concentration.
- Intervention effect The A. mexicana seed extract is more allelopathically effective than the leaf extract against T. aestivum and H. vulgare.
- Mechanism The seed and leaf aqueous extracts of A. mexicana are concluded to contain water-soluble allelochemicals that could inhibit seed germination of T. aestivum and H. vulgare.
