Abstract
Investigates the chemistry of the aerial parts of Chrysoma pauciflosculosa and identifies two new sesquiterpenes. Aqueous solutions of organic compounds of C. pauciflosculosa were tested for their effects on the growth of the native sandhill species Rudbeckia hirta and Schizachyrium scoparium. Different organic compounds had variable effects on the germination and radicle growth of the native species.Suggested Citation
