ABSTRACT Alien plant species are widely utilised for ornament, agro‐forestry, or even for restoration and are more likely to be introduced multiple times and disseminated widely across a landscape. Here we report on the native and alien species used for hedging purposes in rural and peri‐urban eastern Africa and undertake a preliminary assessment to ...

Leaf extracts of Coffea racemosa inhibit digestive trypsins and impair the development of two major lepidopteran pests, Spodoptera frugiperda and Diatraea saccharalis. While both species showed significant enzymatic inhibition, biological responses differed markedly. D. saccharalis exhibited high mortality, whereas S.

Allelopathic and Bloom-Forming Picocyanobacteria in a Changing World
Picocyanobacteria are extremely important organisms in the world’s oceans and freshwater ecosystems. They play an essential role in primary production and their domination in phytoplankton biomass is common in both oligotrophic and eutrophic waters ...

Short Abstract This article analyses the political ecology of Rwanda's eucalyptus boom, situating it as a site of tension within a global push towards ‘nature‐based solutions’. It develops the concept of vegetal infrastructure, demonstrating how certain tree species become legible to global environmental governance while making local social ...

The plant Centaurea cineraria L. subsp. cineraria has been investigated as a potential source of inhibitors of broomrape radicle growth. The latter are weeds that pose a threat to agriculture and for which there are few methods available for the control ...

Antimicrobial Activity of Catechol and Pyrogallol as Allelochemicals
Abstract Catechol and pyrogallol are allelochemicals which belong to phenolic compounds synthesized in plants. Their antimicrobial activities were investigated on three bacteria (Pseudomonas putida, Pseudomonas pyocyanea, Corynebacterium xerosis) and two fungi (Fusarium oxysporum, Penicillium italicum) phytopathogenic species as test ...

Seven allelochemicals, namely R-(+)-limonene (A), vanillin (B), xanthoxyline (C), vanillic acid (D), linoleic acid (E), methyl linoleate (F), and (±)-odorine (G), were investigated for their herbicidal activities on Chinese amaranth (Amaranthus tricolor ...
