Phytotoxic activity of aqueous extracts of ruderal plants and its potential application to tomato crop

Botan‪ical Sciences, 2021
Background: The application of synthetic pesticides to the tomato crop (Solanum lycopersicum -Solanaceae-) increases fruit production, but also carries risks for the environment, human and animal health. Hypothesis: local ruderal plant extracts could

Bioherbicides in organic agriculture [PDF]

, 2023
Given that the use of synthetic pesticides is prohibited in organic agricultural production, the biggest challenge is plant protection. The fight against weed plants in organic production is a measure that has neither simple nor standard solutions. Since herbicides are prohibited in these plantations, the use of biopesticides represents a safe, legally

Allelopathy of Ricinus communis and light spectrum variation decrease emergence and growth of Cyperus rotundus

Bioscience Journal, 2023
Weeds negatively influence agricultural production. However, those losses depend on weed specie, its time of emergence, and period of interference on agricultural crops.

Pistacia Root and Leaf Extracts as Potential Bioherbicides

Plants, 2022
The allelopathic effect of pistachios was analyzed by field and laboratory tests. The parameters analyzed in the field trials were the biomass, weed density, weed diversity, and specific richness of the weed community. The studies were carried out in the area under the canopy and in the area beyond the influence of the pistachio tree, and the results ...

Physiological action of bioherbicides in weed control: a systematic review

Frontiers in Agronomy
IntroductionBioherbicides are naturally derived substances that can be used to control weeds. Bioherbicide compounds can be alternatives to synthetic herbicides and are key resources for the discovery of novel molecules and modes of action (MOA) for weed

Allelopathic Sugarcane Leaf Litter and Its Potential Use as Soil Mulching for Weed Management in Sugarcane Cultivation

Weed Research, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Sugarcane leaves, both green and fallen, left after harvest, are agricultural residues containing compounds that inhibit weed germination and seedling growth. This study evaluated their allelopathic effects and mulching potential for weed control.
