- Observation GC-MS identified 19 bioactive compounds in starfruit leaf extract.
- Observation Triterpenes constituted 21.31 % of the identified chemicals.
- Observation Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate constituted 14.44 %.
- Observation 3,7,11,15-Tetramethyl-2-hexadecen-1-ol constituted 9.85 %.
- Observation Gamma-Sitosterol constituted 8.99 %.
- Observation Most identified chemicals suppressed seedling growth.
- Intervention effect Low leaf-extract concentrations stimulated seedling responses.
- Intervention effect Higher leaf-extract concentrations were phytotoxic.
- Intervention effect Starfruit extract reduced finger millet germination and root length.
- Intervention effect Starfruit extract reduced barley shoot length and biomass.
- Observation In pots, finger millet showed resistance at mulch doses relative to barley.
- Recommendation The authors suggested including starfruit in agroforestry systems based on barley tolerance.
- Recommendation The authors recommend field evaluation of dose-dependent starfruit allelopathy on Himalayan crops.
