ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the allelopathic effect of garlic volatiles on Angelica sinensis by studying the allelopathic effect of both living garlicand isolated garlic sprout volatiles on A. sinensis, and provide certain theoretical basis for Angelica garlic interplanting mode to alleviate the stress of continuous cropping A. sinensis. Method:Through the determination and analysis of the growth indexes and leaf protective enzyme system of A. sinensis，the adaptability of A. sinensis to continuous cropping stress and non-continuous cropping stress environment under the influence of the volatiles of living garlic and isolated garlic sprout as well as the mechanism of resistant growth and development were discussed. Result:The overall analysis showed that the growth index and leaf protective enzyme activity of isolated garlic sprout with alleloinductive treatment（DC2）under continuous cropping stress were increased by 17.51% and 48.34% respectively as compared with those under single cropping（CK1）. The growth index and leaf protective enzyme activity of angelica under continuous cropping and intercropping（LC2）were increased by 16.63% and 36.65% as compared with those under monocrop cropping（CK2）. Those indicated that the volatiles of isolated garlic sprout had more significant effect than those of live garlic on alleviating the stress of continuous cropping of A. sinensis. Conclusion:Regardless of the presence of continuous cropping obstacle，appropriate concentrations of living garlic and isolated garlic sprout volatiles had an allelopathic promoting effect on angelica root growth index and leaf protective enzyme activity，and the effect was more obvious in continuous cropping stress conditions，so intercropping garlic has a certain role in alleviating angelica's continuous cropping stress.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To study the effect of volatile from isolated garlic sprouts on the germination characteristics of Angelica sinensis seeds under simulated continuous cropping stress. Methods: Treating the obstacle of A. sinensis seeds under simulate continuous cropping stress with the extract from Angelica Sinensis Radix and using isolated garlic sprouts to simulate garlic volatile allelopathy environment, so as to study the germination characteristics of A. sinensis seeds. Results: The extracts from Angelica Sinensis Radix inhibited the germination of A. sinensis seeds, and the higher the concentration was, the stronger the inhibition effects will be. The volatile from the isolated garlic sprouts promoted the germination of A. sinensis seeds, which was not treated with the extracts from Angelica Sinensis Radix at low concentration (50 g isolated garlic sprouts) and inhibited the germination at high concentration (100-200 g isolated garlic sprouts). The isolated garlic sprouts volatile had certain promoting allelopathy on the germination properties of A. sinensis seeds which were treated with the extracts from Angelica Sinensis Radix. When the fresh weight of the donor garlic sprouts was 50-100 g, the promoting effects on A. sinensis seeds germination reached extremely significant level (P<0.01). When the fresh weight of garlic sprouts was 200 g, the promoting effects were not significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The volatile from the isolated garlic sprouts could alleviate the germination inhibition by extracts from Angelica Sinensis Radix.
