Antimicrobial and allelopathic effects of leaves extracts of Myrcia hatschbachii

Abstract: Plants have been seen as alternatives for researching natural antimicrobials and herbicides. The aim of this work was to evaluate the antibacterial, antifungal, and allelopathic properties of leaves extracts of Myrcia hatschbachii. The crude extract and fractions were obtained by Soxhlet apparatus. Antimicrobial activity was determined by the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) using the broth microdilution method. The ethyl acetate fraction showed activity against Candida albicans (MIC: 62.5 µg/mL), Staphy… Show more

“…These conditions raise new and relevant insights to study the allelopathic potential of U. europaeus and its possible use as a bioherbicide. For instance, we used dried instead of fresh plant material because it is a useful way to conserve and store the surplus plant material before its use, preventing decomposition and keeping allelopathic potential (Bonanomi et al ., 2018; Gatto et al ., 2021). We also used activated carbon (AC), as an allelopathy neutralizer, commonly used to discriminate if the effects of plants are driven by allelopathic compounds (Sturm et al ., 2018; Lorenzo et al ., 2021).…”

“…Considerando o uso de plantas como potenciais fontes de compostos bioativos para a produção de herbicidas naturais, o estudo da alelopatia avalia a capacidade da planta em influenciar o crescimento e desenvolvimento biológico e agrícola de outras espécies vegetais (Macias et al, 2000;Gatto et al, 2021).…”
