Lantana camara is regarded both as a notorious weed and a popular ornamental garden plant. Allelopathy involves both inhibitory and stimulatory biochemical interactions between plants. Lantana allelopathic effect studies have been done with many crops, trees, shrub and weeds under both laboratory and field conditions to determine their allelopathic potential and its use. Allelochemicals of Lantana inhibited the germination, growth and metabolism of crops, weeds and bryophytes and vegetables.
