As Salvia exudates in a screening work have shown to possess inhibitory activity on the germination of Papaver rhoeas L. and Avena sativa L., a database for fast and efficient data collection among the various collaborating groups to be used in the following research steps to define the allelopathic potential of these species has been developed. Data about the effect of 13 species of Salvia (13 species and a control species) on Avena and Papaver has been extracted from the database and some statistical analysis have been done. First, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) clustering algorithm has been developed in order to group data in at most five clusters. 100 trials have been done to cluster data, in order to have unbiased results. Then, the clustering results have been ranked by the following innovative index, to give a ranking of the effectiveness of every Salvia species

Abstract
As Salvia exudates in a screening work have shown to possess inhibitory activity on the germination of Papaver rhoeas L. and Avena sativa L., a database for fast and efficient data collection among the various collaborating groups to be used in the following research steps to define the allelopathic potential of these species has been developed. Data about the effect of 13 species of Salvia (13 species and a control species) on Avena and Papaver has been extracted from the database and some statistical analysis have been done. First, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) clustering algorithm has been developed in order to group data in at most five clusters. 100 trials have been done to cluster data, in order to have unbiased results. Then, the clustering results have been ranked by the following innovative index, to give a ranking of the effectiveness of every Salvia species
