Phytotoxic allelochemicals, such as mimosine and certain phenolic compounds, including p-hydroxycinnamic acid, protocatechuic acid, and gallic acid, have been identified in the leaves of the species. (wikipedia.org)
Leucocephala3
Bioherbicidal activity of L. leucocephala on terrestrial plants and aquatic weed water hyacinth were reported. (wikipedia.org)
Livestock feed should not contain more than 20% of L. leucocephala, as the mimosine can cause hair loss and stomach problems. (unitedcaribbean.com)
Albizia adinocephala , Albizia lebbeck , Bauhinia violacea , Cassia nodosa , Cassia tora , Dioclea sclerocarpa , Entada phaseoloides , Enterolobium cyclocarpum , Leucaena leucocephala and Moringa olifera seeds were also highly toxic but had only low levels of essentially non-toxic lectins suggesting that the toxicity was due to other antinutritional factors.

Phenolic1
Most of these are phenolic compounds and are implicated in allelopathy, a process which includes the direct or indirect detrimental effect of one plant on the germination, growth and development of another plant (Zaprometov 1992). (regional.org.au)
Supplementation2
Addition of foliage from tree leaves or supplementation with seed meals or even urea can improve the utilization of low quality roughages mainly through the supply of nitrogen to rumen microbes. (unitedcaribbean.com)
Upon supplementation at the optimal levels, Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities were enhanced fourfold with Se and eightfold with mimosine in the mitochondria. (typeset.io)
Mimosa pudica contains the toxic alkaloid mimosine, which has been found to also have antiproliferative and apoptotic effects. (luminescents.net)
The seeds contained only low levels of essentially non- toxic lectin and they have great potential as dietary protein sources for man and animals. (cipav.org.co)
Rosinha G2 and var Carioca 80 seeds were toxic and contained high levels of potentially toxic lectins. (cipav.org.co)
It is demonstrated for the first time that mimosine, a naturally occuring toxic amino acid, could be a beneficial growth factor in concentrations between 0.1 and 0.2 mM. (typeset.io)
Mimosine, a toxic amino acid, was also found to be beneficial to the growth of the seedlings exposed up to 0.2 mM. (typeset.io)
Exposure to toxic metals can intensify the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are continuously produced in both unstressed and stressed plants cells. (typeset.io)
Some of the ROS species are highly toxic and must be detoxified by cellular stress responses, if the plant is to survive and grow. (typeset.io)
Phytotoxic1

Seedlings3
Among the two crop plants sorghum seedlings were sensitive to the aqueous leaf extracts of Acacia leucopholea . (regional.org.au)
Oxidative stress during selenium (Se) deficiency in the seedlings ofTrigonella foenum-graecum grown for 72 h was investigated and the response to supplemented levels of Se (0.5-1 ppm) and mimosine (0.05-1 mM) was evaluated. (typeset.io)
When compared to the stressed seedlings, mitochondrial oxygen uptake from seedlings of Se (0.75 ppm) group and mimosine (0.2 mM) group exhibited threefold enhancement in state 3 respiration rate and a controlled state 4 rate, with respiratory control ratios of 5-8. (typeset.io)
Germination2

To obtain optimal germination the seeds must first be extracted using a knife to remove the endocarp. (antropocene.it)
Allelopathic2
Plants produce a large variety of secondary metabolites like phenols, tannins, terpenoids, alkaloids, polyacetylenes, fatty acids and steroids, which have an allelopathic effect on the growth and development of the same plant or neighboring plants. (regional.org.au)
2000). These chemicals are produced in above or below ground plant parts or in both to cause allelopathic effects in a wide range of plant communities. (regional.org.au)
Extracts4
Vasaka (Adhatoda vasaka) vasicine is one of the extracts obtained from the plant which contains medicinal properties. (theayurveda.org)

Aqueous extracts of the roots of the plant have shown significant neutralizing effects in the lethality of the venom of the monocled cobra (Naja Kaouthia). (luminescents.net)
The inhibitory effect of these crop plants is directly proportional to the increasing concentration (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%) of aqueous leaf extracts of Acacia leucopholea . (regional.org.au)
