“…Soil microbial species are diverse and their composition varies greatly in both space and time. The complex composition of soil microorganisms causes allelochemicals to change when they enter the soil [47][48][49]. Existing research showed that in response to the leaves of Rhododendron formosanum entering the soil, Pseudomonas transformed the main allelochemical (−)-catechin into the more phytotoxic protocatechuic acid.…”

In a greenhouse experiment, the effects of soil microorganisms and extracts of Achnatherum inebrians on the seed germination and seedling growth of Elymus nutans were studied. The results showed that both the extracts from aboveground and belowground parts of A. inebrians significantly inhibited the germination rate, germination potential, germination index, vigor index, seedling height, root length, and fresh weight of E. nutans, but increased malondialdehyde content, catalase, peroxidase and superoxide dismutase activity of E. nutans seedlings (p < 0.05). The allelopathy of aqueous extracts of the aboveground parts of A. inebrians was stronger than that of the precipitates. Aqueous extracts of the aboveground parts of A. inebrians decreased seed germination rate, germination potential, germination index, vigor index, seedling length, root length, and seedling fresh weight by 10.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
