Seed of three weed species collected from the grain bins of combines while standing hard red winter wheat was harvested germinated better than hand-harvested seed. Combine-harvested curly dock seed germinated from 4 to 24% more than hand-harvested seed. Curly dock seed harvested with a commercial-type combine germinated better than those harvested with a small-plot combine. Harvesting slimleaf lambsquarters and Venice mallow seed with a commercial-type combine also enhanced germination compared to hand-harvested seed.

Background: Based on our previous work, we found that 10-methoxycanthin-6-one displayed potential antibacterial activity and quaternization was an available method for increasing the antibacterial activity. Here, we explored the antibacterial activity of quaternized 10-methoxy canthin-6-one derivatives. Methods and Results: Twenty-two new 3-N-benzylated 10-methoxy canthin-6-ones were designed and synthesized through quaternization reaction. The in vitro antibacterial activity against three bacteria was evaluated by the double dilution method. Moreover, the structure–activity relationships (SARs) were carefully summarized in order to guide the development of antibacterial canthin-6-one agents. Two highly active compounds (6p and 6t) displayed 8-fold superiority (MIC = 3.91 µg/mL) against agricultural pathogenic bacteria R. solanacearum and P. syringae compared to agrochemical streptomycin sulfate, and showed potential activity against B. cereus. Moreover, these two compounds exhibited good “drug-like” properties, low cytotoxicity, and no inhibition on seed germination. Conclusions: This work provides two new effective quaternized canthin-6-one derivatives as candidate bactericide, promoting the development of natural-sourced bactericides and preservatives.
