Potencial alelopático de Sapindus saponaria L. (Sapindaceae) ; Allelopathic potential of Sapindus saponaria l. (Sapindaceae)

Studies on allelopathy have been important in understanding the processes by which plants influence their neighborhood by releasing substances of secondary metabolism and its application in agriculture, forestry systems and ecosystem management. The objective of this study was to evaluate the allelopathic potential of aqueous extract of root, fruit, young and senesced leaves of Sapindus saponaria L. (soapberry) on the germination of seeds and morphology of seedlings vegetables (Lactuca sativa L. and Allium cepa L.) and weed (Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) Link and Ipomoea grandifolia (Dammer) O D... Mehr ...
