In pot culture, the effects of aqueous leaf extracts (0, 1 and 2% concentrations) of Ageratum conyzoides L., Anagallis arvensis L., Chenopodium album L, Parthenium hysterophorus L. and Rumex dentatus L. were studied on growth of green gram (Vigna radiata Wilczek) var. K 851. The leaf extracts of all test weed species significantly reduced all growth parameters (viz., root length, shoot length, leaf area, root biomass, shoot biomass, total biomass, pod number and seed weight) of green gram. The effects of weed leaf extracts were concentration dependant.
