Os compostos alelopáticos podem afetar o crescimento e inibir a germinação das espécies. O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a fitoquímica e o efeito alelopático do extrato das folhas de Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi na germinação e crescimento de plântulas de Lactuca sativa L. e, posteriormente, aplicar a metodologia em eucalipto vermelho (Eucalyptus camaldulensis). Os compostos químicos foram determinados em extrato alcoólico das folhas, comparados e contrastados observando a alteração de cor. As sementes de alface e eucalipto vermelho foram distribuídas em gerbox contendo papel filtro como substrato, umedecido com 7 mL do extrato aquoso das folhas frescas, nas seguintes concen trações: (0; 12,5; 25; 50; 75 e 100%). Para todas as análises e experimentos foram utilizados três repetições. Os gerbox foram distribuídos em um delineamento inteiramente casualizado, mantidos em câmara de germinação com temperatura de 20 °C para alface e 28°C para eucalipto e fotoperíodo de 12 horas. Durante o segundo e quinto dia foram realizadas contagens das sementes germinadas de alface. O período de avaliação do experimento foi de cinco dias para alface e 12 dias para eucalipto. Ao final, foram determinadas as porcentagens de germinação, comprimento da raiz e de parte aérea das plântulas. Os resultados demonstraram interferência negativa na germinação e crescimento de alface e eucalipto em função do aumento da concentração do extrato. Entre os aleloquímicos predominantes estão os compostos fenólicos e derivados, com destaque aos flavonoides, terpenos e heterosídeos cardioativos o que pode estar relacionados ao efeito alelopático negativo da aroeira. O uso da aroeira associado ao eucalipto deve ser feito com um manejo adequado.   Palavras-chave: Alface. Aleloquímicos. Anacardiaceae. Eucalipto. Efeito Alelopático.   Abstract Allelopathic compounds can affect growth and inhibit species germination. The objective of this work was to analyze the phytochemistry and the allelopathic effect of  extract of  Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi leaves on the  Lactuca sativa L. seedlings germination and growth and later apply the methodology in red eucalyptus (Eucalyptus camaldulensis). The chemical compounds were determined in the leaves alcoholic extract, compared and contrasted observing the color change. The lettuce and red eucalyptus seeds were distributed in a gearbox containing filter paper as a substrate, moistened with 7 mL of the fresh leaves aqueous extract in the following concentrations: (0; 12.5; 25; 50; 75 and 100%). For all analyzes and experiments, three repetitions were used. The gearbox was distributed in a completely randomized design, maintained in a germination chamber with a temperature of 20 °C for lettuce and 28 °C for eucalyptus and a photoperiod of 12 hours. Germinated lettuce seeds were counted during the second and fifth days. The experiment evaluation period was five days for lettuce and 12 days for eucalyptus. At the end, the germination percentages, root length and the seedlings aerial part were determined. The results showed negative interference in the germination and growth of lettuce and eucalyptus due to the extract increased concentration. The most frequent allelochemicals were flavonoids, terpenes, tannins, anthocyanins and heterosides, which are probably related to the negative allelopathic effect. The use of  aroeira associated with eucalyptus must be done with proper management.   Keywords: Lettuce, Allelochemicals Anacardiaceae. Eucalyptus. Allelopathic Effect.

Soil amendments from peats, brown coals and composts produced from segregated biodegradable waste or biomass from fallow land can increase soil fertility and improve soil productivity. The aim of the study was to determine the possibility of using willow (Salix viminalis L.) biomass composts as a substrate component in horticulture. The objects of the research were composts produced from willow chips (A), willow mixed with hay (B) and willow mixed with hay and mineral nitrogen (Nmin) fertilizer (C). Composting was carried out in a pile under aerobic conditions. In order to determine the properties and fertilizing value of the composts, basic chemical parameters were analyzed (pH; total contents of C, N and P), and a pot experiment was established to analyze germination and growth of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). Changes in pH, total nitrogen content (TN), phosphorus (TP) and a decrease in TOC were observed in the investigated samples. The results of the experiment showed that the highest yield was obtained from the pots with the mixture of willow, hay and Nmin. Matured composts significantly stimulated the germination and growth of the test plants. It can be concluded that the addition of hay and Nmin significantly increased the fertilizing value of the investigated composts.

Abstract Allelopathy is an important biological process, which has direct or indirect effects on the germination and growth potentials of plants. Awareness about the allelopathic properties of plants which prevail in agricultural systems can help growers to amend crop cultivation patterns accordingly. In this study, we evaluated the allelopathic effects of Ficus benjamina on germination and early seedling growth of four hybrids of sunflower (Oliver, Parsun-3, SFH-80 and NK-S-278). Ethanolic and hot-water aqueous extracts from leaves, while litter and mulches of the test allelopathic plant significantly reduced germination, radicle and hypocotyle growth of sunflower. Germination percentage was drastically reduced in all the four sunflower hybrids by ethanolic, hot-water and litter extracts; however, compared to control, mulching assay significantly increased germination in hybrids Oliver (76%), Parsun-3 (42%), SFH-80 (78%) and NK-S-278 (30%) at 2, 4, 8 and 12g extract concentration, respectively. Hypocotyle and radicle length of test hybrids were significantly reduced in each assay type. Among tested assays, ethanolic extracts revealed more drastic effects on the studied parameters than hot-water, litter, and mulching. Sunflower hybrid NK-S-278 was more severely affected, while Parsun-3 exhibited resistance to the allelopathic stress. Inhibitory effects were more prominent with increasing concentration of the extracts. The order of the phytotoxic effects of tested bioassays was ethanolic extract˃ hot-water˃ litter˃ mulching. The study suggested that Ficus leaves may possess potent allelochemicals with growth inhibitory effects on sunflower seedlings. It is suggested that further study might be required to check the allelopathic effect of Ficus benjamina on germination and growth of these sunflower hybrids in field conditions.

Due to its economic, social, and ecological potentials, yerba mate can be a source of employment and income in the southern region of Brazil. The objectives of the present study was to (1) quantify the total polyphenols in fresh yerba mate seeds (FS), seeds dehydrated for 70 d (SD), and seeds stratified in sand for 180 d (SS); (2) evaluate the potential germination and growth inhibitory effects of water, ethanol + water (1:1), and ethanol (99%) extracts of yerba seeds (FS, SD, and SS) using lettuce seedlings; and (3) verify the presence of polyphenols in fresh seeds of yerba mate through histochemical methods. In the bioassay, extracts of yerba mate seeds were used in the germination of lettuce seeds. For the histochemical analysis, sections of yerba mate seeds were stained with specific dyes. The results revealed that yerba mate fresh seeds contain higher concentration of phenolic compounds, which decreased in dehydrated seeds, and almost no phenolic compound was observed in stratified seeds. The bioassay results showed that the polyphenols present in the extracts of yerba mate seeds resulted in phytotoxic effect on the roots of lettuce seedlings. The histochemical observations revealed the presence of “lignified rough barrier” and phenolic compounds between the endocarp and endosperm of the yerba mate seeds
