Bioherbicidal activity of seed extract of Campomanesia lineatifolia on the weed Sonchus oleraceus L.
Sonchus oleraceus L. is a persistent weed in horticultural crops that generates high economic losses and its management is carried out with various chemical molecules. The objective of this research was to evaluate the bioherbicidal activity effect of the extract of Campomanesia lineatifolia seeds on the germination and growth of S. oleraceus L. seedlings. The study was carried out in two phases. In the first phase, germination was evaluated with two experiments, the first consisted of the addition of the ethanolic extract of C. lineatifolia every third day, in the second experiment the extract was only added at planting. In both cases, four concentrations of the extract (0%, 3%, 6%, and 9%) were evaluated. In the second phase, the same extracts were applied to plant leaves. C. lineatifolia extract inhibited the germination of S. oleraceus, when applied only once at sowing. As there was no germination with the extracts of C. lineatifolia, no direct inhibitory effect on the growth of the seedlings could be seen on the number of leaves, length of roots, and stem. With the foliar application, an incidence of 100% with symptoms of chlorosis and necrosis was observed using any of the concentrations evaluated, but the applications did not cause the plant death. The ethanolic extract from the seeds of C. lineatifolia has bioherbicide activity on S. oleraceus.
