Abstract
Ageratina adenophora is an invasive weed with widespread distribution. During the last several decades, many biologically active secondary metabolites have been isolated and characterized from A. adenophora, some of them having inspired the research and development of new therapeutic agents. This review mainly focuses on biological properties of A. adenophora, including the toxicity, antibacterial, antifungal, insecticidal, antiviral activities and others. In addition, the current limits and potentials of A. adenophora and its extracts are also discussed.

Composted invasive plant Ageratina adenophora enhanced barley (Hordeum vulgare) growth and soil conditions. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0275302. [PMID: 36173955 PMCID: PMC9521843 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0275302] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Ageratina adenophora originating from central America has flooded forests, pastures, and farmland in more than 40 tropical and subtropical countries, causing huge ecological disasters and economic losses. In this paper, we intended to use a complex inoculum composed of Pseudomonas putita and Clostridium thermocellum to in-situ compost A. adenophora debris and then to compare the phytotoxicity of extracts from uncomposted and composted A. adenophora (UCA and CA respectively) to barley seed germination and young seedling growth. A field experiment was finally conducted to reveal the effects of UCA and CA on barley nutrients uptake, yield, grain quality, soil enzyme activities, microbial biomass and biodiversity. In-situ composting sharply decreased 4,7-dimethyl-1-(propan-2-ylidene)-1,4,4a,8a-tetrahydronaphthalene- 2,6(1H,7H)-dione(DTD) and 6-hydroxy-5-isopropyl-3,8-dimethyl-4a,5,6,7,8,8a-hexahydronaphthal en-2(1 H)-one(HHO) from 2096.3 and 743.7 mg kg-1 in uncomposted A. adenophora to 194.4 and 68.19 mg kg-1 in composted A. adenophora. UCAE showed negative influences on seed germination performances (except lower rates on germination percentage). The mechanism may be the inhibition of bio-macromolecules hydrolysis (including proteins, starch, and phytin) in endosperms and their hydrolysates for forming new plants. CAE promoted seed germination and seedling growth, increased chlorophyll levels in leaves, and stimulated dehydrogenase and nitrate reductase activities in plants, while UCAE got opposite performance. Compared with chemical fertilizers, application of CA in combination with chemical fertilizers significantly improved plant nutrient uptake (nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium), yield, grain quality, quantity of 16S rDNA sequences, richness and diversity of bacterial communities in contrast to UCA which behaved otherwise. Taken together, the use of the microbial agent to in-situ compost A. adenophora may be an effective approach for agricultural use of A. adenophora debris as a plant-friendly organic fertilizer, being undoubtedly worth advocating.

In situ aerobic composting eliminates the toxicity of Ageratina adenophora to maize and converts it into a plant- and soil-friendly organic fertilizer. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 410:124554. [PMID: 33229270 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.124554] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2020] [Revised: 10/30/2020] [Accepted: 11/10/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Ageratina adenophora has invaded many subtropical and tropical countries and caused tremendous ecological and economic losses. This necessitates a new way to use the debris left after clearing this plant. Therefore, the allelochemicals in fresh and aerobically composted A. adenophora plants (FA and CA, respectively) were compared, and their allelopathy against maize was evaluated. The results showed that CA decreased the allelochemicals (6-hydroxy-5-isopropyl-3,8-dimethyl-4a,5,6,7,8,8a-hexahydronaphthalen-2(1H)-one and 4,7-dimethyl-1-(propan-2-ylidene)-1,4,4a,8a-tetrahydronaphthalene-2,6(1H, 7H)-dione) by over 95% compared to FA. In a seed germination test, CA aqueous solutions improved the seed germination and seedling growth, whereas FA solutions led to opposite results. Chemical fertilizers (CF) plus FA resulted in much lower plant biomass and nutrient uptake than CF in a greenhouse experiment. Compared with CF, CF+CA showed positive effects on maize, soil microbial biomass and diversity and enzyme activities in the field. However, the compositions of the predominant microbes were almost unaffected by the application of CA and CF+CA. These significant findings extended our knowledge regarding the elimination of A. adenophora toxicity against other plants and soil microbes through allelochemical degradation in the composting process. In situ aerobic composting provides a new, simple and economical method to convert A. adenophora into a plant- and soil-friendly organic fertilizer.

Abstract
In many areas invaded by Ageratina adenophora, the piles of A. adenophora residue need to be safely treated and economically utilized. To explore a new potential use for these residues, on-site aerobic composting, seed germination test and greenhouse experiment were conducted to compare the phytotoxic allelochemicals in uncomposted and composted A. adenophora plants (UA and CA, respectively) and their influence on ryegrass seed germination and seedling growth. The phytotoxicants 4,7-dimethyl-1-(propan-2-ylidene)-1,4,4a,8a-tetrahydronaphthalene-2,6(1H,7H)-dione (DTD) and 6-hydroxy-5-isopropyl-3,8-dimethyl-4a,5,6,7,8,8a-hexahydronaphthalen-2(1 H)-one (HHO) in UA decreased by 10.09 and 11.01 times in CA on average, respectively. Aqueous extracts of CA increased the seed germination rate, root dehydrogenase activity, leaf chlorophyll content and nitrate reductase activity; those of UA behaved oppositely. Compared with chemical fertilizers (CF), CF + CA promoted plant growth, increased plant nutrient uptake, and resulted in higher soil available nutrients, enzyme activity and microbial biodiversity, whereas CA alone had similar or better influences on plants and soils than CF. The predominant bacterial and fungal composition was the same in the soils supplied with CA and CF + CA. Therefore, on-site aerobic composting eliminated the phytotoxicity of CA and provided a new, simple and economical approach for the potential use of A. adenophora biomass as a plant- and soil-friendly organic fertilizer.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to purify the natural chlorogenic acid (CGA) monomer from Heijingang potatoes and investigate its interaction with recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA). The potato extract (PE) was purified using macroporous resins and solvent, and the CGA monomer was subsequently isolated using semipreparative liquid chromatography (SP-LC). The purity and structure of the CGA monomer was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The interaction between the CGA monomer and rHSA was studied using fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular docking. HPLC analysis indicates that the CGA monomer had a retention time of 5.368 min and a purity of 97.9%, the presence of which was confirmed by NMR. The molecular docking and fluorescence spectroscopy demonstrate that CGA had a static quenching effect on rHSA with one binding site, and the range of K values was 7.14 × 103 to 1.56 × 104 M-1. This simple and efficient extract coupled with SP-LC has the potential for use in the extraction and purification of CGA in pilot or large-scale operations.
