Defensive stratagems of plants, with special reference to allelopathy [PDF]
The green plant has evolved an array of defences to ameliorate the effects of stresses in its environment. Allelopathy, biochemical interactions between plants, plays a role in plant defence but recent work suggests that some compounds which act as ...

Climate change threatens biodiversity and the balance of ecosystems, specifically in key species. It seems that Haematoxylum calakmulense will lose more suitable areas than Haematoxylum campehianum in the future. Our results should be considered in current and future reforestation plans to improve their efficiency.

Physiological conjunction of allelochemicals and desert plants. [PDF]
Plants exchange signals with other physical and biological entities in their habitat, a form of communication termed allelopathy. The underlying principles of allelopathy and secondary-metabolite production are still poorly understood, especially in ...

Exploiting the allelopathic properties of agricultural crops in low-input cropping systems [PDF]
The FATEALLCHEM project (5th framework programme) applied a holistic approach and used modern techniques in allelopathy research, concluded on the possibilities of exploiting allelopathic properties of wheat and rye and established a framework for future

The effect of water turbidity on the near-surface water temperature of larval habitats of the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae [PDF]
Water temperature is an important determinant in many aquatic biological processes, including the growth and development of malaria mosquito (Anopheles arabiensis and A. gambiae) immatures.

Competition and soil microbe‐mediated interactions following dieback of a dominant wetland plant
Abstract Plant invasions can have important consequences for the soil ecosystem which, in turn, can affect interactions with other plant species and impose serious constraints on restoration efforts. In the Mississippi River Delta (MRD), USA, widespread dieback of the dominant wetland plant, Phragmites australis, was followed by the colonization of ...

Impacts of Smooth Pigweed (Amaranthus hybridus) on Cover Crops in Southern Ontario [PDF]
Amaranthus hybridus is a noxious weed in Ontario, with demonstrated allelopathic properties that can lead to decreased agricultural production. We tested the germination and growth of five cover crop species exposed to A.

Volcanic soils alleviate the allelopathic capacity of Empetrum nigrum in degraded tundra ecosystems
Land degradation due to unsustainable land use is of major concern worldwide and recovery is often slow. A potential mechanism behind slow recovery of degraded ecosystems is the retarding impacts of allelopathic plant species on the establishment of species that might facilitate the recovery process.
