Abstract

The aim of the present work is to study the chemical composition, to estimate the phenolic compounds content and to evaluate the potential allelopathic effects of the Haloxylon scoparium Pomel. Phytochemical tests revealed that Haloxylon scoparium contains tannins, saponins, coumarins, alkaloids, flavonoids and steroids. Furthermore, it contains high levels of total phenolic (588.33 mg GAE 100 g-1) and flavonoids (95.45 mg QE 100 g-1) contents. Moreover, LC-MS-MS analysis allowed us to determine their chemical composition. The results of this characterization confirm the presence of vanillin, naringenin, folic acid, maleic acid, benzoic acid, myricetin, qwuercetin, beta-carotene, butylhydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), rutin, cafeic acid, hydroxy-4-coumarine, ascorbic acid, and gallic acid. The allelopathic effect was studied on seed germination and seedling growth of four weed species. The bioassays were performed using different concentrations (1 %, 2.5 %, 5 % and 10 %) against a negative control. The seed germination, shoot and root length of weed species were completely inhibited at the highest concentrations (10 %, 5 %). However, the lower concentrations exhibited lesser inhibition percentages on the germination and the seedling growth. The phytochemical results and the significant allelopathic effects of the plant extract suggest that this species may offer new substances for the biocontrol of weeds.

来自阿尔及利亚撒哈拉沙漠的 Haloxylon scoparium Pomel（藜科）的植物化学成分和等位潜能

本研究的目的是研究 Haloxylon scoparium Pomel 的化学成分，估计其酚类化合物含量，并评估其潜在的等位病理效应。植物化学测试表明，海龙莨含有单宁、皂苷、香豆素、生物碱、黄酮类和类固醇。此外，它还含有大量的总酚（588.33 毫克 GAE 100 克-1）和黄酮类化合物（95.45 毫克 QE 100 克-1）。此外，通过 LC-MS-MS 分析，我们还确定了它们的化学成分。分析结果证实了香兰素、柚皮苷、叶酸、马来酸、苯甲酸、杨梅素、槲皮素、β-胡萝卜素、丁基羟基茴香醚（BHA）、丁基羟基甲苯（BHT）、芦丁、咖啡酸、羟基-4-香豆素、抗坏血酸和没食子酸的存在。研究了四种杂草的种子萌发和幼苗生长的等位效应。生物测定采用不同浓度（1%、2.5%、5% 和 10%）与阴性对照进行。在最高浓度（10%、5%）下，杂草的种子萌发、芽和根的长度完全受到抑制。然而，低浓度对发芽和幼苗生长的抑制率较低。植物化学结果和该植物提取物的显著等位效应表明，该物种可为杂草的生物防治提供新的物质。
