Abstract

This study aims to identify the phytochemical content of Morinda citrifolia L. leaves and fruits and to analyze the effect of extract type and concentration on the growth of Cyperus rotundus L. tubers. Randomized Block Design (RBD) was used with two treatment factors. Observed parameters included plant height, number of leaves, growth rate, and phytotoxicity. Data were analyzed descriptively qualitatively and using two-way ANOVA, followed by Duncan’s test for significant differences. The results showed that noni leaf and fruit extracts contain secondary metabolite compounds, including alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, steroids, triterpenoids, phenolics, and tannins. However, fruit extracts had higher metabolite levels than leaf extracts, which showed no alkaloid presence in the Dragendorff test. Extract type and concentration significantly affected all growth parameters. The combined leaf-fruit extract and fruit extract showed an effect, but there was no significant difference. Similarly, 50% and 75% concentrations showed an effect but were not significantly different. The interaction between extract type and concentration affected the number of leaves and growth rate but did not affect the plant height or phytotoxicity.
