| Abstract | ||
| This experiment was designed to study the allelopathic effect of durum wheat (Triticum durum) variety Cymmit, Barley (Hordeum vulgare) variety Acsad 14 and Oat (Avena sativa) variety Narimski on bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) variety Aras in mixed culture using Equal Agar Compartment Method as a new procedure to exclude any competition effect. Results indicated the significant effect of root exudates of the three studies crop plants that affect the elongation and dry weight of Bread wheat variety Aras seedlings when compared to pure stand culture in such a way that durum wheat caused lowest radicle length while Oat crop root exudates minimized all recorded data. It was obvious that allelochemicals from studied crop seedlings root exudates caused the reduction in the recorded data of bread wheat seedlings under no-competition and no-nutrient environment that was created in the Equal Agar Compartment Method. | ||
