Herbicidal Characteristics and Structural Identification of the Potential Active Compounds from sp. KRA17-580.

Weeds are notorious plant species exhibiting a harmful impact on crops. Biological weed control is an efficient and environmentally friendly technique, usually constitutes naturally derived compounds, including bioherbicidal metabolites produced by sp. The isolation and structural identification of phytotoxic compounds from have recently been proposed as an effective way to the discovery of novel bioherbicides.

Isolation, identification and characterization of Streptomyces metabolites as a potential bioherbicide.

Bioactive herbicidal compounds produced by soil microorganisms might be used to creating a bioherbicide for biological weed control. A total of 1,300 bacterial strains were isolated and screened for herbicidal activity against grass and broadleaf weeds. Among primarily selected 102 strains, the herbicidal activity of bacterial fermentation broths from the following three isolates strain-101, strain-128, and strain-329 reduced the growth of D.
