Abstract: The qualitative and quantative survey of weeds in wheat crop at Student’s Experimental Farm, Malir Farm, Latif Farm and the Experimental Filed of Wheat Research Institute Tandojam, Pakistan was conducted. The results revealed that twenty six weed species were found infesting the wheat crop. Most dense populated as well as most frequently occurring weed was Jhil (Chenopodium album). Its frequency and density were 30 and 13.53% respectively at various experimental fields of Tandojam, Pakistan.
