TL;DR: After 120 yr of burial in moist, well-aerated sand, 23 seeds of Verbascum blattaria and two seeds of a Verbascasum sp.
Abstract: After 120 yr of burial in moist, well-aerated sand, 23 seeds of Verbascum blattaria and two seeds of a Verbascum sp. germinated and produced normal plants (50% germination for Verbascum). After a 6-wk cold treatment, a single seed of Malva rotundifolia germinated also, producing a normal plant (2% germination). Plants were grown to maturity in a greenhouse, and flowering was induced by exposure to a 6-wk cold treatment. Flowers were artificially pollinated to produce seed of both Verbascum blattaria and Malva rotundifolia. The Verbascum sp. failed to set seed. Collected seeds were subsequently germinated, producing normal plants. F 1 seeds of V. blattaria had a germination of 64%. Seeds (6%) of M. rotundifolia germinated after a cold treatment.

TL;DR: A fungal pathogen, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Penz.) Sacc.
Abstract: A fungal pathogen, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Penz.) Sacc. f. sp. malvae, isolated from anthracnose symptoms of round-leaved mallow (Malva pusilla Sm.), was shown in greenhouse tests to be host specific to Malva spp. and velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrasti Medic. #3 ABUTH), and only with slight attack on hollyhock [Althaea rosea (L.) Cav. # ALGRO], Malope trifida Cav., and Venice mallow (Hibiscus trionum L. # HIBTR). Round-leaved mallow plants inoculated with a spore suspension of the fungus were killed after 17 to 20 days. It was less pathogenic on velvetleaf with 60 to 70% attack. The fungus can readily be cultured and field tests from 1982 to 1987 resulted in excellent control of round-leaved mallow under natural conditions. Therefore, it has good potential for biological control of round-leaved mallow in field crops.

TL;DR: Results indicate that M. rotundifolia can be classified as a model hyperaccumulator among ornamental plants with an exceptional ability to accumulate and translocate Cd ions as well as sufficient biomass for harvesting.

TL;DR: A sesquiterpene and a tetrahydroxylated acyclic diterpenes as well as two known monoterpenes, 6 C(13)nor-terpenes and 11 aromatic compounds were isolated from the water extract of Malva silvestris by spectroscopic NMR and MS analysis.

TL;DR: The more concentrated extracts of chamomile and malva inhibited totally the growth of the tested fungi with malva the most effective one.
Abstract: The fungistatic activity of six aqueous extracts of plants were tested against Aspergillus candidus, Aspergillus niger, Penicillium sp. and Fusarium culmorum. The plants were, chamomile (Anthemis nobilis L.), cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum J. Presl.), French lavender (Lavandula stoechas L.), garlic (Allium sativum L.), malva (Malva sylvestris L.) and peppermint (Mentha piperita L.). The more concentrated extracts of chamomile and malva inhibited totally the growth of the tested fungi with malva the most effective one.
