Abstract
- Phytotoxicity of Lotus ornithopodioides methanolic extract was assayed on Lactuca sativa.
- Total extract was fractionated to identify the most biologically active fractions.
- n-Hexane, chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions pointed out the highest phytotoxicity.
- The most active fractions have been chemically characterized.
- All fractions include molecules that have previously been demonstrated to be phytotoxic.
