“…Our sample was carvacrol-type, characterized by high contents of this compound and also by the presence of p-cymene and γ-terpinene in different quantities [32][33][34]. The herbicidal activity of EOs rich in carvacrol from T. capitata and other species, as well as of the single compound has been largely studied, although the majority of experiments were performed in in vitro conditions [30,[35][36][37][38]. Seeds of Sinapis arvensis soaked for 30 min in a solution of 1.5 µL/mL T. capitata EO (83.86% carvacrol), dissolved in Tween 20 (0.1%), and then placed on double-layered moistened Whatman No.…”

“…The selection of the EOs was based on the previous knowledge of their herbicidal properties. T. capitata EO has been reported to inhibit the germination and growth of many weeds [28,29], including P. oleracea and Erigeron canadensis [30]. M. piperita EO showed phytotoxic activity against tomato crops (Lycopersicon esculentum), radish (Raphanus sativus) and the weeds P. oleracea, Convolvolus arvensis, and Echinochloa colonum [31].…”

“…M. piperita EO showed phytotoxic activity against tomato crops (Lycopersicon esculentum), radish (Raphanus sativus) and the weeds P. oleracea, Convolvolus arvensis, and Echinochloa colonum [31]. The potential of E. camaldulensis EO to control different weeds has been demonstrated [14,30]. The EO from S. chamaecyparissus could be a promising alternative to synthetic herbicides as it was tested on seed germination and root and shoot growth of four crops (Zea mays, Triticum durum, Pisum sativum, and Lactuca sativa) and two weeds (P. oleracea and Vicia sativa) resulting to be less injurious to the crop species Z. mays and P. sativum as compared to the weeds [32].…”

Control of Erigeron bonariensis with Thymbra capitata, Mentha piperita, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, and Santolina chamaecyparissus Essential Oils

In the search of sustainable and environmentally friendly methods for weed control, there is increasing interest in essential oils (EOs) as an approach to reduce synthetic herbicide use. The phytotoxicity of Thymbra capitata, Mentha piperita, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, and Santolina chamaecyparissus EOs against the noxious weed Erigeron bonariensis were evaluated in pre- and post-emergence assays in greenhouse conditions. The EOs were applied at 2, 4, and 8 µL/mL, with Fitoil used as emulsifier. In post-emergence, two ways of application were tested, irrigation and spraying. Several germination parameters (germination %, mean germination time, and synchrony of the germination process) were evaluated in pre-emergence tests, and the phytotoxicity level was assessed in post-emergence. In pre-emergence, all EOs significantly reduced seed germination as compared to the controls, ranking: T. capitata > E. camaldulensis > S. chamaecyparissus > M. piperita. The effectiveness of all EOs varied with the tested dose, always following the rank 2 μL < 4 μL < 8 μL, with T. capitata EO showing full effectiveness even at the lowest dose. In post-emergence, T. capitata was the most effective EO, inducing a rather complete inhibition of plantlet growth at the highest two doses. These EOs demonstrated to have good potential for the formulation of natural herbicides.

Effects of different weed control practices on soil quality in Mediterranean crops

-Effects of different weed control practices on soil quality in mediterranean crops I Abstract: Effects of different weed control practices on soil quality in mediterranean cropsThis research approaches the question of weed control sustainability, from the point of view of soil quality maintenance and enhancing.A big choice of practices and products for weed control are available nowadays, but the actual definition of "sustainable practice" not always considers soil fertility. Soil processes timescale is wider than the productive, commercial and legislative ones. Also the definition of survey protocols is a process slower than the evolution of weed control methods.The faster reaction in the soil ecosystem after an external pressure is given by the organisms living in it, and the microbial community is finally the most effective agent in nutrient recycling processes.In this investigation, the same soil analysis protocol was applied on soil samples exposed to different weed management and control methods. Using soil quality indexes and bioindicators, soil properties variations after the different weed control treatments were compared. In particular soil carbon pool and how microbial community recycles was surveyed. A standard protocol to both find variations in long-term soil quality and survey the short-term impact of weed control practices on soil biological processes was defined.Weed management practices can interact with the nutrients recycling processes performed by the microorganisms living in the soil. These processes have a central role in maintaining soil fertility, one of the most important resources for agriculture.Three weed management practices were compared: the use of synthetic (oxyfluorfen) or natural (essential oils and aqueous extracts) herbicides and two mechanical methods (tillage and mulching).Soil fertility was monitored measuring soil physical-chemical values and elaborating soil quality indexes and bioindicators.Effects of different weed control practices on soil quality in mediterranean crops II Riassunto: Effetti di diverse tecniche di gestione delle erbe infestanti dei coltivi mediterranei sulla qualità del suolo Questa ricerca si occupa di un ramo della sostenibilità ambientale del controllo delle arvensi infestanti, dal punto di vista del mantenimento e del miglioramento della qualità del suolo. Oggi è disponibile sul mercato una vasta gamma di prodotti e di tecniche, ma la stessa definizione di "pratica sostenibile" non sempre tiene in considerazione la fertilità del suolo.I processi che avvengono nel suolo hanno infatti scale temporali più ampie rispetto a quelli produttivi, commerciali e legislativi. Anche la definizione dei protocolli di indagine è un processo più lento rispetto all'evoluzione commerciale dei metodi di controllo delle infestanti. In seguito ad una pressione esterna, la parte dell'ecosistema suolo che reagisce più velocemente sono gli organismi che in esso vivono, e la comunità microbica è in definitiva l'operatore più efficace nel riciclare i nutrienti del suolo.In...

The chemical composition of essential oils from Satureja cuneifolia growing in east Spain was analyzed by GC, GC/MS. Forty-five compounds accounting for 99.1% of the total oil were identified. Camphor (47.6%), followed by camphene (13.6%) were the main compounds. Their herbicidal and antifungal activity was tested in vitro against three weeds (Amaranthus hybridus, Portulaca oleracea and Conyza canadensis) and eleven common pathogenic or saprophytic fungi (Phytophthora citrophthora, P. palmivora, Pythium litorale, Verticillium dahlia, Rhizoctonia solani, Penicillium hirsutum, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Phaeoacremonium aleophilum, Phaemoniella chlamydospora, Cylindrocarpon liriodendri and C. macrodidymum). The essential oil was very active against A. hybridus and C. canadensis significantly inhibiting their germination and seedling growth. Minor activity was shown against P. oleracea, depending on the concentration applied. P. palmivora, P. citrophthora and Pa. chlamydospora were the most sensitive fungi to the treatment with the essential oil, whereas R. solani showed no inhibition. Results showed that S. cuneifolia essential oil could be used for biocontrol of weeds and fungal plant diseases.
