title = "A novel leaf-movement inhibitor of a nyctinastic weed, Sesbania exaltata Cory, designed on a naturally occurring leaf-opening substance and its application to a potential, highly selective herbicide",
abstract = "We isolated 4-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-trans-p-coumarate (1), the leaf-opening substance of Sesbania exaltata Cory. The leaf-movement inhibitor, designed on the chemical mechanism of nyctinasty, could keep the leaves of S. exaltata open till the leaves withered and died.",
