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 AgronomyIntroductionBioherbicides 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

Toxicity of aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. about Euphorbia heterophylla L.
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Aqueous 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.

Organic Horticulture and Bioherbicides: A Review
International Journal of Innovative Research in Engineering & Management, 2022 Weeds are one of the most problematic, time-consuming, and expensive production issues for organic horticulturists. The need for novel bioherbicides to manage weeds has increased as organic agriculture has risen in importance. Pathogens, cosmetic compounds, and natural material extracts might all be made to produce bio herbicides.
