초록

Twelve species of Ipomoea were investigated for allelopathic behavior. Seed extracts of I. quamoclit, I. nil and I. pes-tigridis showed significant allelopathy over germination of other seeds. Investigation on seed extracts of I. quamoclit, revealed the presence of several phytochemical components viz., n-triacontanol, sitosterol, stigmasterol, ${\alpha}-amyrin$, taraxerone, taraxerol, erythrodiol, cucurbitacin-G. Seed fat of twelve species were also analyzed.
