A pot experiment at the research farm of Rajendra Agricultural University, Pusa during
2003 and 2004 revealed that the growth of Parthenium hysterophorus may be restricted by the
application of grinded leaf residue of Xanthium strumarium at the rhizosphere. Among different
treatments, maximum growth inhibition of Parthenium was observed with the treatment of 3.0%
(w/w) Xanthium strumarium residue for all observation periods starting from 30 days after sowing
(DAS) to 90 DAS. The inhibition was observed in all plant parts of Parthenium hysterophorus i.e.
root, shoot, and leaf. The inhibition in emergence of seedlings of Parthenium was also recorded at
30 DAS. Significant inhibition in the growth of Parthenium hysterophorus was started to observe
with treatment of 1.5% Xanthium strumarium residue. Therefore, the present study clearly
indicates the potential eco-friendly management of the obnoxious weed, Parthenium
hysterophorus. Such eco-friendly control of weeds will also indirectly help in biodiversity
conservation of the local region.
