[Method] The types of weeds and the characteristics of weed occur- rence in Coffea arabica orchads in Nujiang River basin were investigated from July to August in 2012. [Result] The results showed that there were 69 types of weeds belonging to 21 families in Coffea arabica orchads. The predominant harmful types were shown as follows: Commelina nudiflora L. + Leptochloa chinensis, Cyperus ro- tundus L. + Bidens pilosa L. + Eleusine indica, Imperata cylindrical + Ageratum conyzoides L. + Eupatorium odoratum L., Ageratum conyzoides L. + Digitaria san- guinalis (L.) Scop. The preponderant weeds consisted mainly of 10 species, namely, Cyperus rotundus L., Commelina nudiflora L., Leptochloa chinensis, Digitaria san- guinalis (L.) Scop, Imperata cylindrical, Bidens pilosa L., Ageratum conyzoides L, E- upatorium odoratum L., Eleusine indica and Chenopodium serotinum L. [Conclusion] The result from this study is of great significance for the plantation of Coffea arabica in Nujiang River basin, as well as the control of weeds.展开更多

This experiment evaluated the allelopathic potential of Murraya paniculata (L.) against four weeds viz., Bidens pilosa L., Amarathus spinosus L., Echinochloa crusgalli (L.) Beauv. and Chloris barbata Sw.. In laboratory test, aqueous extracts from M. paniculata leaves at concentrations of 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 g/L were tested on germination and seedling growth of the weeds. The extracts showed inhibitory effect, varying with weed species and extract concentration. Increase in concentrations increased the degree of inhibition. Concentration at 50 g/L and 100 g/L, completely inhibited seed germination of C. barbara and A. spinosus. Pot experiments were done in a glasshouse, with dry leaf powder as mulch on the soil surface at levels of 2, 4 and 8 t/ha. Dry leaf powder reduced the emergence and growth of all tested weeds, varying with dose and species. Chloris barbara is the most sensitive to M paniculata leaf mulch while E. crus-galli is the most resistant. These results suggest that M. paniculata had the potential lbr weed control and might be the source of a natural herbicide.展开更多

By using various column chromatography (CC) and spectroscopic methods, 13 flavonoids were isolated and identified as follows: 2′-hydroxy-4,4′-dimethoxy-chalcone (1), isoliquiritigenin (2), 3,2′,4′-trihydroxy-4-methoxy-chalcone (3), licochalcone A (4),4′-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-2′,3-dihydroxy-4-methoxy-chalcone (5), butein (6), apigenin (7), luteolin (8), diosmetin (9), chrysoeriol (10), 3,5,6,7,3′,4′,5′-heptamethoxyflavone (11), 7-O-β-D-glucopyranosyt-5,3′dihydroxy-3,6,4′-trimethoxyfiavone (12), sulfuretin (13). Compounds 1-5, 9, 11 were obtained from the genus Bidens for the first time.展开更多
