“…Many studies report their allelopathic activity against algae and cyanobacteria (Fitzgerald, 1969;Planas et al, 198 1;Agami and Waisel, 1985;Saito et al, 1989;Aliotta et al, 1992;Gross et al, 1996;Nakai et al, 2000). Several phenolic compounds with algicidal activity against cultured algae and natural phytoplankton assemblages have been isolated from M. spicatum (Planas et al,198 1).…”

Allelopathy in aquatic environments may provide a competitive advantage to angiosperms, algae, or cyanobacteria in their interaction with other primary producers. Allelopathy can influence the competition between different photoautotrophs for resources and change the succession of species, for exarnple, in phytoplankton cornmunities. Field evidence and laboratory studies indicate that allelopathy occurs in all aquatic habitats (marine and freshwater), and that ail prirnary producing organisms (cyanobacteria, micro-and macroalgae as well as angiospenns) are capable of producing and releasing allelopathically active compounds. Although allelopathy also includes positive (stimulating) interactions, the majority of studies describe the inhibitory activity of ailelopathicaily active compounds. Different mechanisms operate depending on whether allelopathy takes place in the Open water (pelagic zone) or is Substrate associated (benthic habitats). Allelopathical interactions are especiaily common in fully aquatic species, such as submersed macrophytes or benthic algae and cyanobacteria. The prevention of shading by epiphytic and planktonic primary producers and the competition for space may be the ultimate cause for allelopathical interactions. Aquatic ailelochemicals often target multiple physiological processes. The inhibition of photosynthesis of competing primary producers seems tobe a frequent mode of action. Multiple biotic and abiotic factors determine the strength of allelopathic interactions. Bacteria associated with the donor or target organism can metabolize excreted aiielochemicals. Frequently, the impact of surplus or limiting nutrients has been shown to affect the overail production of allelochemicals and their effect on target species. Similarities and differences of ailelopathic interactions in marine and freshwater habitats as well as between the different types of producing organisms are discussed.

“…Greca et al (1998) reported some antialgal phenols and polyphenols isolated from Zantedeschia aethiopica. Nakai et al (2000) showed that M. spicatum released tellimagrandin II, ellagic, gallic and pyrogallic acids and (+)-catechin, and that each compound produced an inhibitory effect.

“…According to previous studies, N-phenyl-2-naphthylamine extracted from water hyacinth has been reported as one type of strong anti-algal allelochemical (Sun et al 1993). Nakai reported that Myriophyllum spicatum inhibited Selenastrum capricornutum and Microcystis aeruginosa coexisting in a culture (Nakai 1999), along with polyphenols (Nakai 2000) and fatty acids (Nakai 2005) from Myriophyllum spicatum exhibited growth inhibition effects. The allelopathic compound isolated from Phragmites communis, identified as ethyl 2-methylacetoacetate (EMA) (Li and Hu 2005a), showed strong inhibition activity on the growth of Chlorella pyrenoidosa and Microcystis aeruginosa (Li and Hu 2005b).…”

“…One exception is Myriophyllum spicatum L. (Haloragaceae), which contains high concentrations of phenolics (Smolders et al, 2000), especially gallo-and ellagitannins (Gross et al, 1996;Gross, 1999). Hydrolyzable tannins are the dominant type of phenolics present in M. spicatum and other Haloragaceae (Saito et al, 1989;Gross et al, 1996;Nakai et al, 2000). Tellimagrandin II (1,2,3-tri-O-galloyl-6 (S)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-ß-D-glucose), the major polyphenol present in M. spicatum, has strong algicidal and cyanobactericidal properties (Gross et al, 1996).…”

“…Its concentration is highest in apical shoot sections where it reaches 1-5% of dry weight and accounts for up to 15% of all hydrolyzable tannins present in milfoil (Gross, 2000;Gross, unpublished results). In addition, condensed proanthocyanidins have been isolated from M. brasiliense and M. spicatum (Saito et al, 1989;Nakai et al, 2000).…”

Abstract-Larvae of Acentria ephemerella live fully submerged, feeding on submersed aquatic angiosperms such as pondweeds (Potamogeton spp.) and Myriophyllum spicatum. Only the latter contains high concentrations of hydrolyzable tannins known to interfere with the growth of insect herbivores. We tested whether larvae grow faster on Potamogeton perfoliatus or M. spicatum and whether this is due to polyphenols in their food source. Larvae originating from the same egg clutch grew faster and larger on P. perfoliatus than on M. spicatum. The same growth response was observed with larvae that spent winter diapause on either P. perfoliatus or M. spicatum. These larvae were fed either with their host plant or the other macrophyte. No prior feeding effect was found, but growth of larvae reared on M. spicatum was less than when grown on P. perfoliatus. Larvae from another egg-clutch reared on M. spicatum, either from lake or cultivated in aquaria, exhibited reduced growth on the lake plants. P. perfoliatus contained less than 1% and M. spicatum (aquarium or field material) between 5 and 9% phenolic compounds. No differences in nitrogen content of leaves were found, but apical shoot sections of M. spicatum exhibited a significantly higher nitrogen content than P. perfoliatus. Our results indicate that hydrolyzable tannins are responsible for the reduced growth of Acentria when fed with M. spicatum.
