e1“The allelopathic effects of E. maculata EOs was tested against two common weeds in Tunisia: Sinapis arvensis (dicot) and Phalaris canariensis (monocot)”
e4“On post-emergence stage, volatile oil induces a phytotoxic effect against all tested plants, a decrease in relative water content, an increase of relative electrolyte leakage percentage and levels of proline and malondialdehyde contents”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation 1.8-Cineole was the principal compound of the E. maculata essential oil, accounting for 42% of the oil.
- Observation Oxygenated monoterpenes were the major subclass of the E. maculata essential oil, at 61.5%.
- Intervention effect E. maculata essential oil significantly reduced germination and seedling growth of the tested weeds at pre-emergence, in a dose-dependent manner.
- Intervention effect Volatile oil at post-emergence induced a phytotoxic effect against all tested plants.
- Intervention effect Volatile oil at post-emergence decreased the relative water content of the tested plants.
- Intervention effect Volatile oil at post-emergence increased relative electrolyte leakage percentage in the tested plants.
- Recommendation E. maculata essential oil shows potential for weed management.
