| dc.title | Quakcgrass Root Extract Has Puzzling Effect on Seeds of Crop Plants | en_US |
| dc.type | Article | en_US |
| dc.description | The article discusses the usage of one plant, it's chemical properties, to control weeds. It was thought that a partial explanation for the stimulating or depressing effect of one plant on another might be due to substances excreted by roots or to material liberated when roots or tops decayed. In 1955, quackgrass rhizomes and roots were processed into a concentrated extract to test as crop seed stimulant. With more dilute solutions, greater germination occurred. | |
