Allelopathy is a widespread biological phenomena that occurs when an allelopathic plant creates allelochemicals that affect the growth, survival, development, and reproduction of other plant species in the same habitat, either positively or adversely. Wild plants are plants that are abundant in nature, have the ability to reproduce quickly, and contain a variety of physiologically active chemicals. Many investigations have demonstrated that wild plants can synthesise a wide range of allelochemicals. Mimosa pigra L., Leucaena leucocephala (Lamk.) de Wit., Wedelia trilobata (L.) Hitchc, Leucaena glauca Benth, and Ageratum conyzoides L. are prevalent wild plant species in Vietnam, and they overtake most cultivated land areas, reducing crop yield and growth. This review was based on the ability of some wild plants to inhibit weed species in order to discover possible plants that contain biologically active substances or compounds for herbicides with agro-ecosystem biosafety.
