Abstract
Present investigation deals with amplified seedling morphology of five grass weed taxa belonging to the genus Echinochloa P. Beauv. - E. colona, E. crus-galli, E. cruspavonis, E. frumentacea and E. stagnina, occurring commonly in Paddy fields of Vindhyan Region, Uttar Pradesh, India. Morphological attributes viz. venation and length of coleoptile, surface of scutellum, leaf sheath and leaf blade, collet and shape of leaf blade are found useful for the taxonomic differentiation of seedlings. Illustrations and key have also been provided.
