Abstract

The allelopathic effect of aqueous stems extracts of Mimosa hamata Willd. Seed germination was studied using Vigna radiate L., Zea mays L. and Cicer arietinum L. seeds. The results of the investigation suggested that aqueous stems extracts of Mimosa hamata Willd. increased the percentage of germination and seedling vigor index increased. The aqueous stems extracts show allelopathic activity because there are a large number of bioactive compounds such as saponin which is also known as allelochemical present in the aqueous stems extracts of Mimosa hamata Willd. They have shown a positive allelopathic effect on stems from Mimosa hamata Willd.
