Novel and holistic approaches are required to realize allelopathic potential for weed management (2023)
Journal Article
Hickman, D. T., Comont, D., Rasmussen, A., & Birkett, M. A. (2023). Novel and holistic approaches are required to realize allelopathic potential for weed management. Ecology and Evolution, 13(4), Article e10018. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.10018

Allelopathy, that is, plant–plant inhibition via the release of secondary metabolites into the environment, has potential for the management of weeds by circumventing herbicide resistance. However, mechanisms underpinning allelopathy are notoriously... Read More about Novel and holistic approaches are required to realize allelopathic potential for weed management.
