Anita Kumari, Ravinder Kumar Kohli, Deepanshi Saxena

Abstract

Aqueous and organic leachates and organic extracts fractionated from leaves and inflorescence of Parthenium hysterophorus exhibited allelopathic effects on Brassica campestris. A marked reduction in leaf cell survival and chlorophyll content indicated toxicity of the leachates and extracts. Germination and seedling growth was also inhibited.
