. The least allelopathic potential plant was Garcinia mangostana (Clusiaceae) that showed on an average 36% growth inhibition followed by Schleichera oleosa (Sapindaceae). Based on these results it can be concluded that among the tested plant species, C. aurantifolia, M. oleifera, A. muricata, A. marmelos, C. tamala, and A. indica are strongly allelopathic and therefore, could be used as potential candidates for the development of eco-friendly natural herbicides. |
