Herbicidal Activity of Thymbra capitata (L.) Cav. Essential Oil

Molecules, 2020
The bioherbicidal potential of Thymbra capitata (L.) Cav. essential oil (EO) and its main compound carvacrol was investigated. In in vitro assays, the EO blocked the germination and seedling growth of Erigeron canadensis L., Sonchus oleraceus (L.) L ...

Natural products as herbicides for tree establishment [PDF]

Forestry, 2005
Summary The selectivity and effi cacy of the foliar-acting natural-product herbicides bilanaphos and citronella oil were tested in comparison with glufosinate-ammonium. When applied to tree-base foliage of 10 species of broadleaved and coniferous trees in May or June they caused contact damage to the sprayed area only. Overall application of bilanaphos

Natural compounds with herbicidal activity

Italian Journal of Agronomy, 2007
Research about phytotoxic activity of natural compounds could lead both to find new herbicidal active ingredients and to plan environmental friendly weed control strategies. Particularly, living organisms could be a source of compounds that are impossible, for their complexity, to synthesize artificially. More over, they could have alternative sites of

Molecular methods for differentiating Phragmites australis subspecies and identification of hybrid stands in the Upper Midwestern United States

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise In North America, Phragmites australis (common reed) has drawn a great deal of research attention. Non‐native P. australis subsp. australis is a noxious weed that has locally displaced native P. australis subsp. americanus in some areas.

The natural herbicide rhein targets photosystem I

Scientific Reports
The natural anthraquinone rhein has been identified as a novel herbicide with a potentially new mode of action using a generative AI system for functional molecules discovery. Its herbicidal activity was light-dependent and resulted in rapid burndown symptoms on leaves of treated plants.

The “Wicked” Nature of the Herbicide Resistance Problem [PDF]

Weed Science, 2016
Sociologists define a wicked problem as one without clear causes or solutions, and thus difficult or impossible to solve. Herbicide resistance is the epitome of a wicked problem: the causes are convoluted by myriad biological and technological factors, and are fundamentally driven by the vagaries of human decision-making.

Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

Chemical profile and allelopathic potential of Anacardium humile St. Hill. (cajuzinho-do-cerrado) leaf aqueous extract in the seed germination and seedling growth of lettuce, tomato and sicklepod

Bioscience Journal, 2019
Anacardium genus, Anacardiaceae, stands out for the presence of phenolic compounds. One of its species, investigated for its different potential uses, is Anacardium humile; however, little is known about its allelopathic effects.

Controlling arable weeds with natural substances as bio-based herbicides

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2020
Today farmers manage arable weeds with chemical tools or mechanical tillage practices. While the heavy reliance on synthetic herbicides in conventional arable farming is under discussion, the environmentally driven trend towards reduced tillage as a ...

The Strategic Role of Sustainability Certifications: A Multi‐Theoretical Framework and Comparative Analysis in the Global Wine Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability certifications are increasingly embedded in the governance and competitiveness of the wine sector, yet their strategic role remains under‐theorised. This study conceptualises certifications as multidimensional strategic mechanisms and conducts a comparative analysis of 50 schemes used in the global wine industry.
