Above- and Belowground Impacts of European Buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica) on Four Native Forbs
Fast-growing European buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica) shrubs are aggressively invading woodlands in eastern and midwestern North America. Buckthorn casts dense shade, alters soil conditions, and may be allelopathic. We used greenhouse and field experiments to investigate aboveand belowground effects of Rhamnus on four herbaceous species native to southern Wisconsin. In the greenhouse, we assesse...
متن کاملPhotosynthesis, Growth, Carbon Allocation, and Fruit Load of Frangula caroliniana and Rhamnus cathartica
Rhamnus cathartica is an invasive shrub capable of high fecundity in North America. The physiology of R. cathartica has received little attention, but more is needed to understand traits that enhance its success in disturbed environments. Such data may help to predict invasiveness of closely related species such as Frangula caroliniana. We hypothesized that R. catharticawould have greater relat...
متن کاملDevelopment of soybean aphid (Homoptera: Aphididae) on its primary overwintering host, Rhamnus cathartica.
Thermally dependent development of soybean aphid (Aphis glycines Matsumura) and common buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica L.) were examined in growth chambers in spring 2005. Models based on ambient air temperatures for all development events were developed. Adjusted models were developed to account for heat units acquired because of solar radiation. These models were tested at field sites in Guelph...
متن کاملEvaluation of Antimicrobial Activity of Some Compounds Isolated from Rhamnus cathartica L
A new anthraquinone derivative, 1,8-dihydroxy-2-[(z)-4-methylpenta-1,3-dien-1-yl] anthraquinone (1), together with known anthraquinone compounds were defined to be, 2-acetyl-3,8-dihydroxy-6-methoxyanthraquinone (2) , emodin (3), glucofrangulin A (4) and phenanthrene derivative named dendrochrysanene (5), lactone compounds named [-sorigenin (6) and geshoidin (7)], xanthone compound termed pruni...
متن کاملAntibacterial Activities of Gel Containing 5% Hydroalcoholic Extract of Rhamnus cathartica L. bark
Background and purpose: Acne is a chronic inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceous glands caused by opportunistic microorganisms. The Rhamnus cathartica is known to have biological and antioxidant properties. This research aimed at investigating the in vitro effect of gel containing 5% R. cathartica extract on acne vulgaris. Materials and methods: The gel formulation contained 25g of dried R...
