摘 要:Hyptis suaveolens (L.) Poit. is an invasive alien weed commonly known as "Bana tulst" in Odisha belonging to the family Lamiaceae and widely distributed in different parts of India. The leaves of the plant have been reported to be used as stimulant, carminative, sudorific and also as a cure for parasitic cutaneous diseases besides the crude leaf extract is reported to be used against colic and stomach-ache. The leaves are the source of different alkaloids, terpenes and volatile oils having allelopathic effect. In view of this the present work was carried out with an aim to investigate the allelopathic effect upon germination of rice (Oryza sativa L.). The result indicated that the higher concentration of the leaf leachate could decrease the percentage of germination besides identified as a potential bio-herbicide.
