Abstract
An experiment was conducted to study the allelopathic impact of bajra (seeds extract) on the seed germination, speed of germination and seedlings growth of chick pea, red beans and mung beans. Aqueous seeds extracts of bajra with different concentrations (5, 10 & 15%) were used to investigate its effect on all the three crops. It was observed that seeds extract of Bajra exhibit very strong allelopathic effect on all growth parameters at all concentrations over to control, however seedlings of mung bean was found to be more sensitive against bajra of 15% (seeds extract) with respect to chick pea and red beans. Whereas, seed germination of chick pea is most susceptible in comparison to mung bean and red beans.
