There is a vast knowledge about the management of American pines plantations in Brazil, but not much about the factors that contribute to its invasion dynamics in natural ecosystems. Allelopathy studies is a gap in the Ecology of pines invasion and could help to better understand its invasive capacity. We aimed to evaluate the allelopathic potential of fresh green needles of Pinus elliottii on germination of Lactuca sativa. We tested extraction with distilled water in concentrations of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and control (0%). Extraction was carried out also in ethanol but dissolved in Tween 20 solution. The allelopathic effect of green needles of P. elliottii was detected since we observed the increasing concentration (in the two types of extraction) resulting in lower germination of both root and hypocotyl length. Although this could be a competitive advantage of P. elliottii in relation to tropical native plants, the implications in the development and establishment of native seedlings in a natural environment should be better studied.
