Ssilverleaf nightshade (Solanum elaeagnifolium Cav.) is a serious weed to
cotton and other field summer crops due to the alkaloids present in the plant
and have allelopathic potential on the germination of other plants. Sorghum
(Sorghum bicolor) h
ave been investigated as a allelopathic crop having strong
competition potential in the field containing many numerous water solution
allelochemicals and can be used to control weeds in field crops. A field
competition study between sorghum and silverleaf nightshade plants was
conducted to determine how long every plant can resist against the other.
