Abstract
During 2015 a laboratory and greenhouse experiments were carried out to explore the allelopathic potential of
different plant parts of Siberian iris (Iris sibirica) on wild oat (Avena fatua) and Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense) early
growth. The aqueous filtrates of Siberian iris rhizomes produced a strong inhibitory effect on germination, radicle and
hypocotyl length and seedling weight of wild oat. Contrary, germination, radicle and hypocotyl length of wild oat was
not significantly reduced by any Siberian iris leafs filtrate concentrations, but seedling weight of wild oat was significantly
reduced at the 1/1 and 3/4 filtrate concentrations of Siberian iris leafs, relative to control. Similar, germination, hypocotyl
length and seedling weight of Canada thistle, were significantly affected by the aqueous filtrates of Siberian iris rhizomes,
and while same parameters were none significantly reduced by the aqueous leaves filtrates of Siberian iris in compare
with the control. In green house experiment, all treatment with different Siberian iris rhizomes residues significantly
affected density, height and fresh weight of wild oat plants. Opposite, no one treatment by Siberian iris leaf residues
caused significant reduction of plants density, height and fresh weight of the wild oat plants in compare with the control.
All Siberian iris mixtures with rhizomes residues highly significant decreased Canada thistle plants density in average for
60.1%, and fresh weight for 60.3% in compare with the control. No one treatment by Siberian iris leaf residues caused
significant reduction of plants density and height of Canada thistle, but 1/1 and 1/2 residues mixtures of Siberian iris leaf
significantly reduced its fresh weight.
