Research Abstract

This project explores the use of Kampo medicine plants for sustainable weed management by isolating and characterizing their allelochemicals for use as green herbicides. It employs immunoaffinity columns for allelochemical isolation and emphasizes the role of soil in allelopathic activity. The research aims to identify novel allelochemicals, understand their mechanisms via Arabidopsis Thaliana, and develop sustainable agricultural practices, reducing herbicide reliance.
