“…In non-chemical weed control, biological methods play a significant role alongside cultural methods, whereas suppressing weeds by using the allelopathic phenomenon is considered to be one of the most innovative methods of weed control [ 48 , 49 ]. Different agronomic methods enable the practical utilization of allelopathic plants in the form of seed meals [ 32 , 33 , 34 , 50 ].…”

“…The use of the allelopathic potential of crops in the form of catch crops, living mulches, or seed meals, for example, may have a positive effect on the agroecosystem, including by providing an opportunity for inhibiting weed germination and development, and stimulating the growth of crops [ 30 , 31 ]. In agriculture and gardening, there is a growing interest in the production and addition into the soil of seed meals from plants belonging to various botanical families, as a non-chemical method of weed control [ 32 , 33 , 34 ]. In relation to the increase in the number of rye brome biotypes resistant to herbicides and the implementation of the EU Green Deal policy, the use of seed meals to control B. secalinus could be an interesting alternative.…”

Rye brome is a rare and nuisance weed in winter wheat canopies. In recent years, farmers have complained about the inadequate chemical control of this species. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of seed meals obtained from allelopathic crops as an environmentally-friendly alternative for the control of herbicide-susceptible (S) and -resistant (R) rye brome biotypes in winter wheat. The pot experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at the Swojczyce Research and Training Station in Wrocław (Poland) to determine the impact of seed meals from: Fagopyrum esculentum, Sinapis alba, Phacelia tanacetifolia, Lupinus luteus, Raphanus sativus var. oleiformis and Ornithopus sativus, at 1 and 3% doses. Wheat emergence (>90%) and early growth were not affected by the presence in the soil of seed meals (only at 1% concentration) from P. tanacetifolia and R. sativus. The efficacy of these meals (reduction of aboveground biomass) at rye brome control was the same as the herbicide or higher. Seed meals from P. tanacetifolia reduced the emergence of the S and R biotypes by approximately 70 percentage points (p.p.) and 30 p.p., respectively, and limited the initial growth of both biotypes. Addition to soil meals from F. esculentum and R. sativus generally reduced only initial weed growth.

“…Although crop residues have great weed control potential, there have been reports that they may also affect cultivated plants. Pużyńska et al (2019) demonstrated that common buckwheat seed-meal removed barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli L.) from the open field plots but also inhibited maize growth.…”

“…It is well known that common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) has substantial allelopathic properties (Kalinova et al 2007, Golisz et al 2007, Pużyńska et al 2019, Szwed et al 2019b). Studies on the allelopathic properties are often carried out using various extracts from plants for weed germination and/or the growth (Golisz et al 2007).…”

“…An aqueous extract from a 14-day plants of common buckwheat inhibited seedling growth of several weed species, including barnyardgrass (Szwed et al 2019a). It is believed that phenolic acids and flavonoids are mainly responsible for buckwheat allelopathic properties (Iqbal et al 2003, Kalinova et al 2005, Golisz et al 2007, Pużyńska et al 2019). Among buckwheat phenolic compounds, catechin had the highest allelo-pathic activity but, due to the low level, its potential as a growth inhibitor could be important as a root exudate (Kalinova and Vrchotová 2009).…”

Previous studies have shown that residues of common buckwheat roots (BRR) (but not entire common buckwheat plants, BPR) in the soil inhibited the growth of barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli L.). The objective of the study was to determine how both the residues affect the content of free phenolics, their esters and glycosides in the soil. The aqueous extracts were used to analyse of unbound phenolic compounds, while those bound to the soil were extracted with sodium citrate. Moreover, an in vitro test was used to assess the allelopathic effect of phenolic compounds present in the soil against barnyardgrass. Among the analysed phenolic compounds after 7 days of BPR and BRR decomposition, only ortho-, meta- and para-coumaric acids and apigenin were found in measurable amounts in the soil. The concentrations of free phenolic compounds were very low. Much higher contents occurred for the esters of these compounds, while no glycosides were found. The contents of phenolic compounds bound to soil were many times higher than unbound ones. The 37-day decomposition period resulted in an increase in bound phenolics, while the content of unbound changed slightly. Overall, the levels of phenolic compounds in the soil with the BRR-amended soil and no-buckwheat residue control were low, and significantly higher in the soil with BPR. An in vitro test showed that m-, p-coumaric acids and apigenin added to growth medium at a concentration higher than in the soil did not affect barnyardgrass shoot growth. Since the levels of phenolic compounds in the soil containing BRR and control soil were low and similar, phenolic compounds cannot be directly responsible for the allelopathic properties caused by the presence of BRR.

Wheat malts are necessary to produce wheat beers. In this study, wheat was grown with addition of seed meals into the soil, to determine whether such agricultural practice could improve the quality of the grain and, therefore, improve the quality of wheat malt produced from these grains. It was determined, that malt produced from the grains of the winter wheat cultivated with the use of seed meals is characterised with improved technological properties, such as saccharification time, filtration time and extract content and some of the seed meals had a positive impact on the content of various volatile compounds present in the produced malts.
