Phenylacetic acid (PAA), one of the phytotoxic compounds in corn (Zea mays) pollen, was identified by GC-MS and by direct comparison with a pure commercial sample of PAA. Bioassays were carried out by testing whole pollen, methylene chloride extract of the pollen, and pure PAA on germination and radical growth ofAmaranthus leucocarpus andEchinochloa crusgalli. The effect of corn pollen was compared with that ofZea mexicana (Teosinte), one of the wild relatives of cultivated maize.
苯乙酸(PAA)是玉米(Zea mays)花粉中的一种植物毒性化合物,通过 GC-MS 分析和与纯商业 PAA 样品的直接比较进行了鉴定。通过对苋属藜和稗草的萌发和根生长进行全花粉、花粉的二氯甲烷提取物和纯 PAA 的生物测定,进行了生物测定。将玉米花粉的作用与玉米的野生近缘种墨西哥类蜀黍(Teosinte)的作用进行了比较。
