Sex Differences in Mouse Exploratory Behaviour to Fel d 1, a Cat ABP-Like Protein

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Fel d 1 is a cat protein abundantly released and found in their habitat and is closely related to mouse androgen-binding proteins (ABPs). We hypothesized that mice have developed chemical communication mechanisms to detect and avoid this protein.

The Allelopathic Activity of Extracts and Isolated from Spirulina platensis

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
We determined the allelopathic effects of crude organic (hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol) extracts of the cyanobacterial Spirulina platensis on barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) Beauv.) and Chinese amaranth (Amaranthus tricolor L.).

Relationship between Acylsugars and Leaf Trichomes: Mediators of Pest Resistance in Tomato

open access: yesInsects, 2022
Tomato plants are highly susceptible to pests. Among the control methods, genetic improvement with introgression of resistance genes from wild accessions into commercial tomato lines is the best alternative for an integrated pest management (IPM).

Potent endogenous allelopathic compounds in Lepidium sativum seed exudate: effects on epidermal cell growth in Amaranthus caudatus seedlings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Many plants exude allelochemicals – compounds that affect the growth of neighbouring plants. This study reports further studies of the reported effect of cress (Lepidium sativum) seed(ling) exudates on seedling growth in Amaranthus caudatus and Lactuca ...
