allelopathy has been explored, further research is needed for widespread application
of allelopathy in agricultural production worldwide. The phenomenon of allelopathy,
thus, offers an attractive way to attain the sustainability of agriculture, environmental
safety, food safety, conservation of resources, and economic constancy.
