Evaluation of Biological Response of Lettuce (<i>Lactuca sativa</i> L.) and Weeds to Safranal Allelochemical of Saffron (<i>Crocus sativus</i>) by Using Static Exposure Method

Safranal, the main volatile chemical of Saffron (<i>Crocus sativus</i>) was studied to estimate its allelopathic effects on the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll, leaf electrolyte leakage, fresh weight, catalase (CAT), and peroxidase (POX) activity of the test plant Lettuce (<i>La...
