Résumé

Population increase, poverty, environmental degradation, and the use of synthetic herbicides are interdependent and closely linked and hence influence global food safety and stability of world agriculture. On the one hand, varied weeds, insects, and other pests have caused a tremendous loss in agricultural crop productivity annually. On the other hand, the use of synthetic insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and other pesticides significantly disturbed the ecology of biotic communities in agricultural and natural ecosystems. Eventually, it destroyed the ecological balance in food chains. Interestingly, natural products released by the plants (allelochemicals) are secondary metabolites involved in ecological interactions and could be an important source of alternative agrochemicals. Mainly released by the plants as an outcome of acquaintances with other plants in their vicinity, these allelochemicals can also be used as eco-friendly substitutes for synthetic herbicides and other pesticides. Despite these facts, agrochemicals are either preferred over allelochemicals or the latter are not known in the direction of their use in achieving sustainability in agriculture. Given this, considering recent reports, this paper aims to: (1) emphasize allelochemicals; (2) overview the major biochemistry of allelochemicals; (3) critically discuss the role of allelopathy (and underlying major mechanisms) in the management of noxious weeds, insect pests, and major plant pathogens; and (4) enlighten the significant aspects so far not or least explored in the current context.
