The present study has been done to investigate the effect of aqueous leaf extract of Eucalyptus globulus on seed germination and rate of radicle growth of Chickpea under laboratory conditions. The study found complete inhibition of seed germination under the treatment of concentrated raw extract (14.28gm/100 ml) and its different dilutions (viz-90%, 70%, 50%, 30% & 10%). Later, a much-diluted raw extract (5.26gm/100ml) was made with its different dilutions as above to study germinations. Later case showed a gradual inhibition in radicle growth with the increasing concentration with a correlation coefficient (r=0.72).
