AB  - Plants may be affected directly or indirectly by allelochemicals which may be released from plants or microorganisms. In this study, the allelopathic effect of leaf leachate of <I>Eucalyptus camaldulensis</I> Labill was examined on germination, growth, morphological and physiological criteria of sorghum (<I>Sorghum bicolor</I>) and kidney-bean (<I>Phaseolus vulgaris</I>). Leaf leachate was tried at 5, 10 and 20% concentrations and sterilized distilled water used as control. Seed germination, seedlings dry matter, shoot/root length were significantly reduced by all concentrations in both species (at 0/05 level). Decrease in chlorophyll content, soluble sugar content and consequently protein content is proportional to the increase in concentration of leaf leachate in both species.
