A study was conducted to understand the effects of certain phenolics, terpenoids, and their equimolar mixture through agar gel and soil growth bioassays and their recovery from soils. The eight compounds selected for this study were p-hydroxybenzoic acid, ferulic acid, umbelliferone, catechin, emodin, 1,8-cineole, carvone, and betulin. Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) was used as test species for agar gel and soil growth bioassays. Root and shoot growth of lettuce was inhibited for all the above except emodin and catechin. However, in soils treated with different phenolics and terpenoids, only root growth of lettuce was inhibited, whereas shoot growth was promoted. Recovery of p-hydroxybenzoic acid and umbelliferone was higher in unautoclaved soils, while that of catechin was lower. Recovery in relation to degradation of compounds and the significance of additive activities of compounds are discussed. Key words: phenolics, allelopathy, terpenoids, soil, Lactuca sativa.

<p>The aim of this work is to study the effects of the brute aqueous extract (BAE) of seven species of the genus <em>Miconia</em> occurring in the Chapada do Araripe-CE on <em>Lactuca sativa</em>, in addition to identifying the classes of secondary metabolites present in the extracts. The treatments consisted of four concentrations of leaf extract (25, 50, 75 and 100%), in addition to a control (0%) of distilled water, with five replicates each in a totally randomized experiment design layout for seven days. The following were assessed: number of germinated seeds, germination speed index (GSI), caulicle and radicle root length of the seedlings, occurrence of radical root necrosis, changes in the mitotic index and occurrence of chromosomal aberrations. The classes of secondary metabolites present in the extracts were identified through color changes and/or formation of precipitation. The brute aqueous extract of the leaves of <em>M. albicans</em>, <em>M. alborufescens</em> and <em>M. stenostachya </em>inhibited the germination of lettuce. All the BAEs of <em>Miconia</em> spp. had an adverse effect on the growth of the caulicle and radicle root of <em>L. sativa</em>. The extracts of <em>M. albicans</em>, <em>M. ibaguensis</em>, <em>M. lingustroides</em> and <em>M. stenostachya </em>were cytotoxic for the lettuce seedlings. Chromosomal aberrations were observed in all tested extracts. The metabolites found were hydrolysable and condensed tannins, flavonoids, flavones, flavanonols, chalcones, aurones and alkaloids. The tested species of <em>Miconia</em> showed inhibitory allelopathic activity within the parameters tested. The classes of secondary metabolites found could be responsible for the allelopathic and cytotoxic effects observed.</p>

O abacateiro é uma planta frutífera, de porte arbóreo, cultivada em diversas regiões do Brasil, sendo utilizado tanto como alimento quanto fitoterápico. Estudos recentes indicam que compostos químicos, considerados fitoterápicos, podem afetar a germinação de sementes e o desenvolvimento de plântulas. Neste contexto, objetivou-se com este estudo avaliar o efeito alelopático de extratos aquosos das folhas de Persea americana Mill (abacateiro) sobre a germinação e desenvolvimento inicial de alface (Lactuca sativa L.). O experimento foi realizado em câmara de germinação, utilizando extratos aquosos obtidos por meio de decocção e infusão, nas concentrações 4,0, 12,0 e 20,0 mg mL-1, e água destilada (controle), em delineamento inteiramente casualizado (DIC), com 4 repetições de 50 sementes cada. Para avaliar o potencial alelopático foram realizados os testes de Porcentagem de Germinação (PG), Primeira Contagem (PC), Índice de Velocidade de Germinação (IVG) e Tempo Médio de Germinação (TMG) das sementes, além do Comprimento da Parte Aérea (CPA) e Comprimento do Sistema Radicular (CSR) das plântulas da alface. Os dados obtidos foram submetidos à análise de variância pelo teste F e as médias comparadas pelo teste de Tukey a 5% de probabilidade. Os extratos interferiram, significativamente, no CPA e apresentaram interação significativa para as variáveis PC, PG e CPA, sendo que o decocto, quando comparado ao infuso, ambos na concentração 4 mg mL-1 estimulou o crescimento, diferindo estatisticamente do infuso e do controle negativo. Os resultados indicam que ambos os extratos podem ser utilizados como insumo biológico, sendo o infuso como bioherbicida e o decocto como biofertilizante. Palavras-chave: Abacateiro. Alelopatia. Metabólitos Secundários. AbstractAvocado is a fruitful, large-sized plant, grown in several regions of Brazil, used both as food and phytotherapy. Recent studies indicate that chemical compounds considered phytotherapic can affect seed germination and seedling development. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the allelopathic effect of aqueous extracts of leaves of Persea americana Mill (avocado) on germination and initial development of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). The experiment was carried out in a germination chamber, using aqueous extracts obtained by means of decoction and infusion, at concentrations 4.0, 12.0 and 20.0 mg mL-1, and distilled water (control), in a completely randomized design (DIC), with 4 replicates of 50 seeds each. In order to evaluate the allelopathic potential, the Germination Percentage (PG), First Count (PC), Germination Speed Index (IVG) and Mean Germination Time (TMG) tests were performed in addition to the Aerial Part Length (CPA) and Root Length (CSR) of lettuce seedlings. The data were subjected to analysis of variance by the F test and the averages were compared by the Tukey test at 5% probability. The extracts interfered significantly in the CPA and presented significant interaction for the variables PC, PG and CPA, and the decoction, when compared to the infusion, in the concentration 4 mg mL-1, stimulated the growth, differing statistically from the infusion and control negative. The results indicate that both extracts can be used as biological inputs, being the infusion as bioherbicide and decoction as biofertilizer. Keywords: Avocado. Allelopathy. Secondary metabolites.

Sistem hidroponik memungkinkan sayuran ditanam di daerah yang kurang subur dan daerah sempit yang padat penduduknya. Alasan penerapan teknik hidroponik yang utama adalah karena terbatasnya lahan pertanian yang produktif untuk memenuhi kebutuhan manusia yang semakin banyak tiap tahunnya, sehingga dibutuhkan suatu terobosan baru untuk memecahkan masalah tersebut. Penelitian ini telah dilaksanakan pada bulan November 2015 sampai bulan Januari 2016 yang bertempat di kampus Fakultas Pertanian Jl. Propinsi Kecamatan Tembilahan Hulu Kabupaten Indragiri Hilir Propinsi Riau.Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) pola faktorial yang terdiri dari 2 faktor. Faktor pertama adalah jenis POC (N) yang terdiri dari 3 taraf perlakuan yaitu POC Jus Bumi, POC Bonggol Pisang danPOC Limbah Sayuran. Faktor kedua adalah konsentrasi larutan (K) yang terdiri dari 3 taraf perlakuan yaitu 150 ppm, 200 ppm dan 250 ppm. Parameter pengamatan adalah Tinggi Tanaman , Jumlah Daun , Luas Daun , Diameter Batang, Panjang akar ,Volume Akar, Kadar Air, dan Bobot Hasil.Hasil pengamatan menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan jenis POC jus bumi dengan konsentrasi larutan 150 ppm memberikan pertumbuhan dan produksi terbaik untuk tanaman selada secara hidroponik sistem wick. Perlakuan jenis POC limbah sayuran dengan konsentrasi 250 ppm memberikan pertumbuhan dan produksi terbaik selain POC jus bumi sehingga dapat dijadikan sumber POC alternatif.
