Influence of Aqueous Leaf and Stem Extract on Chromolaeriaodoata on germination and seedling growth of Groundnut and Okra:- Amuruche Goodluck A.
ABSTRACT
A
study using aqueous extracts of Chromolaenaodorata was carried out
to investigate the possible allelopathic effect ofits stem and leaf
extracts on germination and seedling growth ofArachis hypogea (L.)
(Groundnut) and 1 Abelmischus esculenta (L.) (Okra) at treatment concentration
1:1, 1.2:5 and 1:5 respectively. Distilled water was used as control while
undiluted was used as the main concentrated extract. Results show that
treatment at (p<0.005) did not significantly inhibit the germination ofseeds
ofthe plant. There was significant reduction (p<0.005) in the plant height,
dry weight of okra, but did not have significant effect in the dry weight of
Groundnut. Concentration of extracts affected the rate ofthe inhibition of
germination and seedling growth ofthe two plants species. The higher the
concentration of extracts, the more the inhibitory effects ofthe extracts
