- Intervention effect Methanol extracts of Capsosiphon fulvescens and Monostroma nitidum completely inhibited lettuce germination.
- Intervention effect Enteromorpha linza water extract completely inhibited lettuce germination at 16 mg per filter paper.
- Observation Lipids were the main active agents against lettuce germination in Capsosiphon fulvescens extracts.
- Intervention effect Lipids at 0.5 mg per paper disc reduced lettuce germination to 0.0%.
- Recommendation The authors recommend using Capsosiphon fulvescens extracts to develop natural herbicidal agents and manage terrestrial weeds.
