An investigation was carried out to evaluate the allelopathic effects of aqueous extracts of Eucalyptus obligo, Chrysanthemum indicum and Eruca sativa on weeds of wheat in the research field of Kanan region, province of Diyala, Iraq during 2016-2017. A minimum number of weeds and Dry weight of weeds were significantly recorded (3.3 m-2, 15 g) respectively in Eruca sativa extract while maximum control of weeds % and inhibition of weeds % (71.2, 87.5%) were significantly recorded in Eruca sativa extract. Different yield components of wheat, such as crop height and 1000-grain weight showed maximum significantly difference 109.0 cm and 42.9 g respectively in Eucalyptus obligo whereas spike length, number of grains/spike, number of plants/m 2 and grain yield revealed maximum significantly difference 11.8 cm, 52.6, 341and 1568 g respectively in Chrysanthemum indicum.
A field experiment was conducted in Kanan region, province of Diyala, Iraq during the winter season 2016-2017 to screen herbicides for wheat cultivation. Six herbicides viz., Salix, Cronus, Pallas, Granstar, Topic and Atlantis were sprayed as post-emergence with second irrigation 54 days after crop sowing. Wheat growth parameters viz Crop height, Spike length and number of grains per spike were a higher in Granstar&Topic (105.2 cm, 12.6 cm, 51.4) respectively, 1000 grain weight were noted with Atlantis (40.9 g). followed by Granstar&Topic (39.2 g), Number of plants / m2 was a higher in Atlantis (430), Grain yield g \ acre was significantly increased in Granstar&Topic (1848 g) weeds growth parameters like Number of weeds / m2, Dry weight of weeds g, Weed control % and Weeds inhibition % were lower in Salix&cronos (0.0,0.0 g,100%,100%) respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
