Abstract | ||
Laboratory and pots study were conducted during growing season 2013 at the Agriculture college field , university of Tikrit to investigate the allelopathic effect of some winter weeds Eruca (Eruca sativa) , wild radish (Raphanus raphanistrum) Annual sow thistle (Sonchus oleracens) ,Milk thistle ( Silybum marianum) and Dwarf mallow ( Malva rotundifolia ) on germination , growth and yield of wheat . The results showed the following: -Laboratory trials The aqueous extract of vegetative parts of Eruca , wild radish , Dwarf mallow and sow thistle were significantly reduced the germination percentage by 56.72 , 51.35,25.68 and 22.98 %of wheat seed respectively . The plumule and Radical length and their dry weight of wheat seeding had reduced when the aqueous extract vegetative parts of above weeds which used by 67.21 , 62.93 , 48.03 , and 44.71 % respectively . | ||
