Invaders exert new selection pressures on the resident species, for example, through competition for resources or by using novel weapons. It has been shown that novel weapons aid invasion but it is unclear whether native species co‐occurring with ...

Allelopathic Potential of Tropical Plants—A Review
The need to meet food demand becomes more urgent as it is forecasted to increase by 50% over the next century. Thus, agronomists promote sensible tools and approaches to eradicate factors that hamper crop production, mainly weeds.

Reduction of allelochemicals during composting of lignocellulosic biomass: identification and transformation mechanism of allelochemicals. [PDF]
The terrestrial plant Lantana camara L. is well-known terrestrial plant because of its allelopathic activities, which affect the germination and yield of other crops. The study aimed to convert this plant into a value-added compost product, as its characterization revealed significant amounts of volatile solids and nutrients.

Differences in the suitability of invasive alien plants as hosts drove variations in cascading bottom‐up effects in aphid host and parasitoid performance, potentially influencing top‐down regulation. Abstract BACKGROUND Invasive alien plants (IAP) can threaten biodiversity by disrupting trophic interactions and, consequently, affect agroecosystems by ...

Seasonal Changes in the Plant Growth-Inhibitory Effects of Rosemary Leaves on Lettuce Seedlings
Plant biodiversity has been studied to explore allelopathic species for the sustainable management of weeds to reduce the reliance on synthetic herbicides. Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L., syn Salvia rosmarinus Spenn.), was found to have plant growth-

Rational pesticide design is now more feasible than ever – but what targets and molecules to choose?
There are seven criteria to achieve resistance recalcitrant successful pesticides. 1. No alternative targets. 2. Pesticide attacks multiple targets. 3. Low amounts of target in pest. 4. Target domain structually dissimilar to mammalian. 5. Target in sufficient pest spectrum. 6. Avoid catabolically prone scaffolds. 7.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Atmospheric nitrogen deposition disrupts plant–herbivore interactions, but its impact on leaf volatile organic compounds (VOCs)‐mediated multi‐trophic herbivore resistance remains unclear within the context of plant invasion. In this study, we initially investigated the

Application of Allelochemicals to Agriculture
The study of allelopathy has a long history, and its application to agricultural production has long been anticipated. Recently, researchers have found allelopathic plants that are now used as cover crops, and allelochemicals which may lead to new herbicides.

Fate of allelochemicals in the soil [PDF]
Allelochemicals are compounds released by one plant or plant residues that may have a negative or positive effect on other plant. The importance of allelopathy was extensively explored during the past three decades, with the work concentrating in the extraction and identification of the chemicals, and demonstration of activity in petry dish experiments.
