Summary:The allelopathic effects of kochia aqueous extracts found in kochia (Kochia scoparia L. Roth.) on seed germination and seedling growth of blue grama (Bouteloua gracilis [H.B.K.] Lag.) were studied in laboratory experiments. Extracts were from regrowth, whole tops, leaves, and stems, representing the vegetative and reproductive phenologies. Inhibition of seed germination did not occur.
