Allelopathic suppression of weed and nitrification by selected cultivars ofSorghum bicolor (L.) moench.

abstract：:The species of desert-dwelling ants of the Cataglyphis bicolor (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) group are difficult to distinguish by morphological features. Analysis of the secretion from the Dufour glands of workers of a number of colonies was undertaken to see if it provided a clear test of species. Linked 6c-ms showed in...
