Allelopathy Effect of Phytochemicals in Laticiferous Species Sarcostemma brunonianum Wight & Arn and Ficus tsjakela Burm. f on Vegetative Growth of Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench
Abstract: The present experimental work was focused out to determine phytochemicals of two medicinal laticifers Sarcostemma brunonianum and Ficus tsjakela and to check the allelopathy potential on Sorghum bicolor under in vitro conditions. Allelochemicals are phytocompounds excreted during the process of secondary metabolism. Chemical components may occur in leaves, stem, root, latex, rhizomes, flowers, fruits, seeds and even in pollen grains. Plant latex supports defense in milk yielding plant species. The …
