Other claims from this paper (15)
- Intervention effect Aqueous swine-cress extracts significantly inhibited germination and seedling growth of wheat.
- Observation Phytotoxicity to wheat varied with the source of the swine-cress extract.
- Intervention effect Leaf extract caused the greatest inhibition of wheat among the extract sources.
- Association The degree of wheat inhibition increased with extract concentration for all extract sources.
- Intervention effect All extract treatments increased the time to 50% germination and the mean germination time of wheat compared with the control.
- Intervention effect All extract treatments decreased the germination index and final germination percentage of wheat compared with the control.
- Intervention effect At 10% concentration, root extract reduced final germination of wheat by 36%.
- Intervention effect At 10% concentration, whole plant extract reduced final germination of wheat by 39%.
- Intervention effect Leaf extract inhibited wheat seedling dry biomass by 73% at 10% concentration.
- Intervention effect Whole plant extract inhibited wheat seedling dry biomass by 65% at 10% concentration.
- Intervention effect Root extract inhibited wheat seedling dry biomass by 12% at 10% concentration.
- Intervention effect Leaf extract caused more inhibition of wheat shoot length, root length and dry biomass than the other extracts.
- Intervention effect All extracts reduced chlorophyll contents of wheat seedlings.
- Intervention effect All extracts increased phenolics in wheat seedlings.
- Recommendation The inhibitory allelopathic activity of swine-cress on wheat should be explored under field conditions.
