ABSTRACT: The phytotoxic composition of Achyranthes aspera was identified through HPLC, and its herbicidal potential was investigated against two narrow leaf weeds viz., Phalaris minor Retz. and Avena fatua L.; and four broad leaf weeds viz. Lathyrus aphaca L., Vicia sativa L., Convolvolus arvensis L. and Asphodelus tenuifolius L. through bioassays. Weed seeds were grown in the aqueous extracts of various plant parts (roots, leaf, stem, fruit and whole plant) of A. aspera at 5% (w/v) concentration. The extracts of all plant parts caused significant reductions with differential degree in germination percentage and mean germination time. Phalaris minor, A. fatua, L. aphaca, V. sativa and A. tenuifolius completely failed to germinate whereas C. arvensis... |

ABSTRACT: Metabolites of Aspergillus niger, prepared in malt extract (ME) broth and potato dextrose (PD) broth, were evaluated for their herbicidal activity against a noxious parthenium weed (Parthenium hysterophorus). In laboratory assays, original (X) and diluted (½ X) fungal metabolites significantly reduced germination and seedling growth of weed. However, metabolites prepared in ME broth proved to have greater herbicidal activity than metabolites prepared in other growth medium. Original metabolites prepared in ME broth have completely hinder the germination of parthenium seeds; while those prepared in PD broth have reduced germination by 89% over control. In pot trials, one-week, two-week and three-week-old parthenium seedlings were sprayed three... |

ABSTRACT In agriculture, weeds have inevitable importance because of reducing the crop growth and also affecting food quality. Although, synthetic herbicides are available to combat these weeds but during recent years there is a trend of using ecofriendly herbicides extracted from natural resources. Present investigation is a continuity of the research, which reported a natural herbicidal compound named as Ophiobolin A from a fungus, Drechslera rostrata. The fungus was incubated in a growth medium of known composition (minimal medium) up to 28 days and its metabolites were extracted with organic solvents. The compound showing bioactivity was purified with the help of Reversed Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RPHPLC) and identified with the... |
