It is source of sucrose and of its bioactive compounds and possess pharmaceutical and plant defence properties. Intra and interspecific allelopathy have been described for sugarcane. In this review, sugarcane is presented as a source of several allelopathic compounds, as evident from laboratory, pot and field studies.
