title: Potent allelochemical falcalindiol from Glehnia littoralis F. Schm.
abstract: A potent allelochemical in Glehnia littoralis F. Schm. was investigated. Falcalindiol was isolated from G. littoralis; 859.9 mg/kg of fresh root and 62.5 mg/kg of fresh aerial parts. Its structure was elucidated by spectroscopic methods, and the antimicrobial activities of falcalindiol were evaluated by the paper disk method against several microorganisms. The plant growth inhibition of falcalindiol was also investigated.
