Toxicity of aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.-Hil. about Euphorbia heterophylla L. [PDF]
Pest Manag SciAqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. strongly inhibit Euphorbia heterophylla L. germination and early seedling growth, but show mild phytotoxicity on mature plants, paradoxically promoting biomass via antioxidants. Abstract BACKGROUND The escalating challenge of herbicide‐resistant weeds, exemplified by Euphorbia heterophylla L.

Phytotoxic Effects of Ethanolic Extracts of Magonia pubescens A.St.-Hil. (Sapindaceae) on the Germination of Emilia sonchifolia (L.) DC. Seeds. [PDF]
Chem BiodiversEthanolic extracts from Magonia pubescens exhibit concentration‐dependent allelopathic activity against Emilia sonchifolia. Leaf extracts strongly inhibit seed germination and seedling growth, surpassing glyphosate under the tested conditions, whereas intermediate concentrations stimulate germination, indicating hormesis.
