“…Higher rates of photosynthesis connected to higher chlorophyll content can lead to increased growth rates, biomass accumulation and overall production ( Shen et al, 2019 ). The chlorophyll-a, chlorophyll-b and carotenoid content of Macrotyloma uniflorum showed decreasing effects upon exposure to Mikania micrantha extracts ( Jali et al, 2021 ). In the present study, we found that both the chlorophyll-a and chlorophyll-b content of L. multiflorum were greatly reduced with increasing concentration of PA, LA, and EP.…”

Sweet potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam] is grown as important cash and food crop worldwide and has been shown to exhibit allelopathic effects on other plants. However, its metabolome has not been studied extensively, particularly with respect to the production of phytotoxic bioactive secondary products. In this study, the chemical composition of petroleum ether extract of sweet potato was characterized, and the morphological and physiological effects of some individual components against four invasive alien weeds Bidens pilosa L., Galinsoga parviflora Cav., Lolium multiflorum Lam., and Phalaris minor Retz. were determined. Twenty-one components were identified by GS-MS, constituting 96.08% of petroleum ether extract in sweet potato. The major components were palmitic acid (PA) (17.48%), ethyl linoleate (EL) (13.19%), linoleic acid (LA) (12.55%), ethyl palmitate (EP) (11.77%), ethyl linolenate (ELL) (8.29%) oleic acid (5.82%), ethyl stearate (4.19%), and 3-methylphenol acetate (3.19%). The five most abundant compounds exhibited strong inhibition activity against the four invasive weeds tested. The highest inhibition rates were seen for LA, followed by PA and EP, respectively. Catalase (CAT), malondialdehyde (MDA), and peroxidase (POD) content of L. multiflorum were increased by the three allelochemicals, i.e., LA, PA and EP, but superoxide dismutase (SOD), chlorophyll-a and chlorophyll-b levels declined. Overall, the combined impact of all five compounds could be quite effective in suppressing the invasive weeds of concern.

“…A decrease in their amounts after phytotoxic treatments has been recorded by previous investigations. Jali et al (2021), reported that chlorophyll a, b and total contents were negatively affected upon the application of phytotoxic extracts on the species Macrotyloma uniflorum. Regarding carotenoids contents, many studies have reported that the accumulation of these pigments decreases significantly in treated plants (Ghimire et al 2020).…”

Background: The efficacy and selectivity of phytochemicals are required for the development of new botanical bioherbicides for both pre- and post-emergence applications. Questions: How vary the phytotoxic potential of the aqueous extracts of Artemisia arborescens among five plant species? Studied species: Lactuca sativa used as a model species, two monocotyledons (Triticum turgidum, Zea mays) and two dicotyledons (Raphanus sativus, Pisum sativum). Study site and dates: Two Artemisia arborescens genotypes were collected at Bousselem and Kef, North West of Tunisia; March 2021. Results: The aqueous extracts are rich in polyphenols, flavonoids, condensed tannins and terpenoids. The highest in vitroinhibitory potential on germination and seedlings growth was detected against Lactuca sativa. The concentration 8 mg/mL causes total inhibition of lettuce germination and has no significant effect on pea germination. At this concentration, the extracts inhibited the germination of the agronomic crops by 46-58 % (Raphanus sativus), 74 % (Zea mays) and 72-78 % (Triticum turgidum). The inhibition rates of radicles and shoots growth vary according to the applied concentration. The in vivo tests showed higher phytotoxic activity against Lactuca sativa and both monocotyledons. This was confirmed by the variation of the symptomatic and biochemical traits. Conclusions: The obtained results confirm the selective bioherbicidal activity of A. arborescens water extracts which promote its potential as natural resource for the development of new botanical bioherbicides.

“…It was shown that phenolic allelochemicals were able to decrease the protein content through the inhibition of protein biosynthesis, or proteolysis (Singh et al 2008), or oxidative adjustment (Fazeli et al 2007). The reduction in protein content can be due to inhibition of the synthesis process, disruption in the translation pathway or activation of other protective mechanisms against stress caused by allelochemical compounds (Knox 2010;Jali et al 2021). In the intercropping of wheat and redroot pigweed, an increase in the protein content was observed at different intercropping ratios in wheat and redroot pigweed roots.…”

Allelopathy refers to the beneficial and detrimental effects of one plant on another plant in both crops and weeds through the production of secondary compounds. In order to evaluate the allelopathic effects of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) as a crop and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.) as a common weed worldwide on each other in intercropping, these plants were cultivated under controlled conditions at Tabriz University laboratory. The ratios of wheat to redroot pigweed were, 100 : 0 and vice versa as a control, 75 : 25, 50 : 50, and 25 : 75. The results showed that at the ratio of 25 : 75 (wheat : redroot pigweed), the fresh and dry weight of roots and shoot length of wheat decreased significantly compared to the control. The fresh and dry weight of wheat shoots showed a significant decrease at different ratios compared to the control. Shoot peroxidase (POD), root superoxide dismutase (SOD), and root and shoot catalase (CAT) activities in redroot pigweed increased in all intercropping ratios compared to the control. POD activity in wheat roots was higher at all ratios than in the control. Furthermore, the ratio of 75 : 25 (wheat : redroot pigweed) led to increased activity of POD enzymes and malonedialdehyde (MDA) content in wheat shoots. Moreover, roots of redroot pigweed showed increased activity of ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and SOD enzymes and MDA content. With increased density of redroot pigweed, the soluble sugar content of wheat roots reduced significantly. However, the content of insoluble sugar and total protein increased. Root exudate compounds such as terpenoids, phenolic compounds, fatty alcohol, steroids, fatty acids, and alkanes were identified using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The findings showed that the roots were more exposed to oxidative stress due to direct contact with allelochemical compounds. Our results support the hypothesis that increasing the density can reduce the toxicity of allelochemical compounds and that increasing the activity of the antioxidant system will improve plant growth under allelochemical stress.
