Sulfide as a soil phytotoxin - A review [PDF]
In wetland soils and underwater sediments of marine, brackish and freshwater systems, the strong phytotoxin sulfide may accumulate as a result of microbial reduction of sulfate during anaerobiosis, its level depending on prevailing edaphic conditions. In

Selection of phytotoxin producing rhizobacteria [PDF]
In order to select phytotoxin producing rhizobacteria to control weed plants, twenty five bacterial strains previously isolated from the rhizospheres of various plants were grown in a liquid medium and, after cell removal by centrifugation, the liquid ...

Phytotoxins from Tithonia diversifolia [PDF]
Tithonia diversifolia (Mexican sunflower) is a dominant plant of the Asteraceae family, which suggests it produces allelochemicals that interfere with the development of surrounding plants. The study described herein was conducted to identify the compounds that have phytotoxic activity in T. diversifolia extracts.

Main Alkaloids of Peganum harmala L. and Their Different Effects on Dicot and Monocot Crops
Alkaloids with allelopathic activity are not as well-known as other allelochemicals. Our study revealed that total alkaloids from seeds of the medicinal plant Peganum harmala L.

Syringomycin, a Bacterial Phytotoxin, Closes Stomata [PDF]
The effects of the bacterial phytotoxin, syringomycin, on stomata were investigated using detached leaves of Xanthium strumarium and isolated epidermes of Vicia faba. Syringomycin is known to cause K(+) efflux in fungal and higher plant cells. Doses of syringomycin as low as 0.3 unit per square centimeter (about 0.88 pmole per square centimeter ...
