Abstract
A study was conducted to assess the allelopathic effect of two volatile monoterpenes viz. cineole and citronellol on Ageratum conyzoides with a view to explore the possibility of their exploitation for future weed management. Both the monoterpenes severely affected the germination, speed of germination, seedling growth, chlorophyll content and respiratory activity. After two weeks of exposure, the weed plants wilted. Out of the two monoterpenes, cineole was more toxic in causing injury to the weed.
