Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect The highest concentration (12.5 %) of silverleaf nightshade extract inhibited broad bean germination by 100 %.
- Intervention effect Flax seeds showed complete germination inhibition at silverleaf nightshade extract concentrations of 7.5 % and above.
- Intervention effect Lower concentrations of silverleaf nightshade extract inhibited wheat seedling growth over time.
- Intervention effect Lower concentrations of silverleaf nightshade extract inhibited broad bean seedling growth over time.
- Intervention effect Lower concentrations of silverleaf nightshade extract inhibited flax seedling growth over time.
- Observation Residues of silverleaf nightshade contain bioactive secondary metabolites, particularly glycosides and terpenes, that inhibit seed germination.
- Recommendation The authors recommend implementing all possible measures to limit further expansion of silverleaf nightshade.
- Recommendation The authors highlight a potential use of silverleaf nightshade bioactive compounds as natural agents for biological control.
