Abstract

Phenolic compounds present in upland weeds (Artemisia asiatica Nakai, Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medik, Portulaca orleracea L. and Trifolium repens L.) which have shown allelopathic activity were determined using paper chromatography (PC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Effect of the determined phenolic compounds on germination and post-germination growth of test plants was also investigated. Kinds of phenolic compounds determined by PC in the four weed species were greater in the aqueous extract than in the methanol extract. Ferulic acid was found in both extracts of the weeds studied, whereas benzoic acid was that the weeds commonly contained hydroquinone, p-hydroxybenzoic, ferulic and cinnamic acids. Out of the phenolic compounds determined by PC and HPLC p-hydroxybenzoic, cinnamic and ferulic acids inhibited germination and post-germination growth of radish and sesame. Inhibition of the phenolic compounds on the radicle growth was greater than on the germination of the test plants.

밭 주요(主要) 우점잡초(優占雜草) 중 allelopathy 작용성(作用性)을 보였던 쑥, 냉이, 쇠비름 및 토끼풀에 대하여 이들 잡초(雜草) 중에 존재(存在)하는 phenol화합물(化合物)을 Paper chromatography(PC) 및 High performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)에 의하여 분리(分離) 확인(確認)하였고, 검출(檢出)된 phenol화합물(化合物)이 검정식물(檢定植物)의 발아(發芽) 및 생장(生長)에 미치는 영향(影響)을 검토(檢討)하였다. PC에 의하여 검정(檢定)된 phenol화합물(化合物)은 4초종(草種) 모두에서 methanol추출물(抽出物) 보다는 물추출물(抽出物)에서 많은 종류(種類)가 확인(確認)되었다. 4초종(草種)의 두가지 추출물(抽出物) 모두에서 PC로 분리(分離)된 phenol화합물(化合物)은 ferulic acid이었으며, benzoic acid는 물추출물(抽出物)에서만 확인(確認)되었다. HPLC에 의해서는 hydroquinone, p-hydroxybenzoic, ferulic 및 cinnamic acid가 전초종(全草種)에서 분리(分離)되었다. PC 및 HPLC로 분리(分離) 확인(確認)된 phenol화합물(化合物) 중 p-hydroxyhenzoic, ferulic 및 cinnamic acid는 검정식물(檢定植物)의 발아(發芽) 및 발아후(發芽後) 생육(生育)에 높은 억제효과(抑制效果)를 보였다. 이들 phenol화합물(化合物)은 일반적(一般的)으로 발아(發芽)보다는 유묘(幼苗)의 근생장(根生長)에 더 큰 저해(沮害)를 나타내었다.
