Phytochemical analysis and allelopathic potential of essential oil of yarrow (Achillea spp.) ecotypes against redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.).

ABSTRACT: This study will contribute to the knowledge of plant allelopathy and its application in weed management, as well as to the valuation of medicinal and neglected plant species. An allelopathy experiment was conducted to introduce Achillea spp. as an effective species on the red root pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.). The allelopathic effect of dry material from the flower, leaf and stem of Tanacetum polycephalum L. and 9 Achillea spp. (Achillea santolina L., A. millefolium L., A. nobilis L., A. conferta DC., A. vermicularis Trin., A. beibersteinii Afan., A. talagonica Boiss., A. tenuifolia Lam., A. aleppica DC.) applied to the soil on the growth of redroot pigweed seedling was tested.
