Abstract
This study was aimed to evaluate the allelopathic effect of the aqueous leaf extract of Clerodendrum infortunatum L. on seed germination, plumule and radicle growth of some agricultural crops such as Triticum aestivum L. (Wheat), Brassica campestris (Mustard), Vigna radiata (L) R.wilczek (Mung bean) and Trigonella foenum-graecum L. (Methi). The ground leaves of C. infortunatum were mixed with distilled water in 1:10 ratio and used as stock solution. The inhibitory effect was studied at 25%, 50% and 75% of aqueous solution and distilled water (control). It was found that the aqueous leaf extract C. infortunatum had inhibitory effect on germination, plumule and radical elongation of tested crops. The results revealed that the inhibitory effect was much more pronounced at higher extract concentrations showing allelopathic potential which may be exploited in controlling seed germination and seedling growth of crops.
