Abstract

The effect of 95% ethanolic leaf-extract from Synedrella nodiflora (L.) Gaertn. on germination and growth of rice plants were examined. The results demonstrated the inhibition effect of extract to the germination of rice. The higher extract concentration showed the higher seed-germination inhibition. The inhibition concentration at 50% seed germination (IC50) was determined and IC50 was 15.16 g/L. The extract at the IC50 was used to determine the osmotic potential which was -0.19 MPa. After that the effect of osmotic potential on the germination and growth of rice was determined by comparing to sucrose, sodium chloride and potassium nitrate at the same ΨS as the extract. The result showed that sucrose, sodium chloride and potassium nitrate did not inhibit seed germination and root growth while the extract showed the inhibition effect. This revealed that the osmotic potential at -0.19 MPa did not effect on rice seed germination and root growth. Water absorption of seeds was also determined and showed that extract did not inhibit water absorption.  The reducing sugar and starch content in 7 days treated seeds were examined. Extract treated seeds showed lower reducing sugar and higher starch than in control. The activity of α-amylase was studied and showed lower activity in extract treatment than in control. Keywords : allelopathy, Synedrella nodiflora (L.)
