摘要:In this study, allelopathic effects of essential oil of Citrus sinensis peel were investigated
against the two broad leaf weeds Anagalis arvensis and Malva parviflora that infested with
wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in pot experiment. This investigation was carried out in the
greenhouse of National Research Centre, Dokki Egypt in the two successive winter seasons,
2017/2018 and 2018/2019. The pots were sprayed with Citrus sinensis peel essential oil at
concentrations,1, 2, 3, 4 and 5%. The results revealed inhibitory effects of essential oil on
the two weeds Anagalis arvensis and Malva parviflora with more inhibitory action on
Anagalis arvensis. The essential oil of Citrus sinensis peel showed a high inhibitory effect
against the two weeds at high concentrations. On the other hand, weed growth inhibitions
were accompanied by an increase in wheat growth as well as yield and yield components.
The results suggested using Citrus sinensis peel essential oil as a bioherbicide.
