Weeds undesirable plants have pour many negative effects on the
yield of the economically growing crops .To control these noxious
plants scientist tried chemical control strategies but for last
many years these chemicals have been found to be very harmful for
the other lives. This has necessitated a more intensive search for
alternative weed management strategies .The idea of using plant
pathogens for management of weeds is not new; however, the concept
of the development of a bioherbicide technology as a specialized
field of study is very young. In present study use of two strains
of Alternaria alternata has been tested on two noxious weed species
Rumex dentaus and Chenopodium album, of wheat crop and efforts have
been made to evolve commercial bioherbicides for their control.
Different formulations and environmental conditions were used
against different growth stages of the respective weeds. The above
mentioned study will open new areas for A. alternta to be used as
biological control agents.
