In another study, [12] on allelopathic effects with other plants, it was shown that white oak extract impedes its germination. A five-year study found that frequent mowing of silverleaf nightshade contributes toward making it a 'superweed', with a deeper taproot, a spikier stem, and greater toxicity to grazing caterpillars.
