Phytotoxic Activities of Mediterranean Essential Oils [PDF]

Molecules, 2010
Twelve essential oils from Mediterranean aromatic plants were tested for their phytotoxic activity, at different doses, against the germination and the initial radicle growth of seeds of Raphanus sativus, Lactuca sativa and Lepidium sativum. The essential oils were obtained from Hyssopus officinalis, Lavandula angustifolia, Majorana hortensis, Melissa ...

Plant protection treatments in Switzerland using unmanned aerial vehicles: regulatory framework and lessons learned

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly used for plant protection treatments. We describe the corresponding Swiss regulatory framework. We also summarize practical experiences gained from technical assessments performed within this framework, field use patterns and the results of field efficacy trials.

Field efficacy of a bioherbicide mimic (DiS‐NH2) in a nanoparticle formulation for weed control in durum wheat

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
A new polymeric nanoparticle formulation containing aminophenoxazinone DiS‐NH2 (2,2′‐disulfanediyldianiline) is proposed as a post‐emergence and contact bioherbicide for weed management in durum wheat. Abstract BACKGROUND Weed‐resistance phenomena have increased dramatically in recent years. Bioherbicides can offer a sustainable alternative to chemical

Aminoisothiazolamides, a new class of potent inhibitors of lysyl‐tRNA synthetase

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The present work covers a series of novel herbicidal lead structures that possess an aminoisothiazolamide scaffold as a structural key feature. Lysyl‐tRNA synthetase 1 (KRS1) was identified as the biochemical mode‐of‐action. Based on optimized and tailored synthetic approaches, a broader SAR study was carried out delivering some lead structures that ...

Induction of Chirality in MXene Nanosheets and Derived Quantum Dots: Chiral Mixed‐Low‐Dimensional Ti3C2Tx Biomaterials as Potential Agricultural Biostimulants for Enhancing Plant Tolerance to Different Abiotic Stresses

Small, EarlyView.
An innovative strategy is showcased for inducing right/left‐handed chirality in MXene‐nanosheets and derived quantum dots to form stable mixed‐low‐dimensional heterostructured‐biomaterials with enhanced colloidal dispersibility and debonding resistance, mimicking the natural asymmetric structure of most chiral biomolecules and living organisms ...

The Impact of Fluroxypyr Drift on Soybean Phytotoxicity and the Safety Drift Thresholds

Agriculture
Maize–soybean intercropping can increase soybean yields and stabilize maize yields, and this practice has been widely promoted in China. Fluroxypyr is a recommended herbicide for maize seedlings, and its drift will cause phytotoxicity to neighboring ...

Nature‐Based Land Management Practices and Yield Dynamics in Oil Palm Production: Insights From Indonesian Smallholder Growers

Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nature‐based land management (NLM) practices are increasingly promoted for their potential to bridge yield gaps and increase overall crop production. Yet, the extent of NLM adoption, the factors driving it, and its impact on yields remain unknown, particularly among smallholder farmers.

The interaction of 9-amine-9-fluorenephosphonic acid derivatives (new morphactins) with some herbicides in toxicity towards Spirodela

Acta Agrobotanica, 2013
Examined was the possibility of interaction between morphactins and herbicides in phytotoxicity towards Spirodela as a test plant. Three newly synthesized 9-amine-9-fluorenephosphonic acid derivatives and the following herbicides were used: Aresin ...

The Phytotoxicity of D.D.T. and of Benzene Hexachloride

Annals of Applied Biology, 1948
Spraying with two preparations of D.D.T. had a negligible effect on the maturation of outdoor tomatoes and of summer cabbage. Spraying with a commercial D.D.T. suspension damaged cucurbits and treatment with the suspension base distorted glasshouse cucumbers during one season only.Benzene hexachloride (B.H.C.) sprays did not affect the yield or flavour
