Lantana camara L. is native to tropical America and has naturalized in many other tropical, subtropical, temperate regions Asia, Africa, Oceania, North South America, Europe. infests diverse habitats with a wide range of climatic factors, its population increases aggressively as one the world’s 100 worst invasive alien species. Its infestation reduces species diversity abundance natural ecosystems agricultural production. The life history characteristics camara, such high reproductive ability adaptive various environmental conditions, may contribute infest increase population. Possible evidence compounds involved defense functions against enemies, herbivore mammals insects, parasitic nematodes, pathogenic fungi bacteria, allelochemicals allelopathy neighboring competitive plant species, have accumulated literature over three decades. Lantadenes A B, oleanonic acid, icterogenin are highly toxic mammals, β-humulene, isoledene, α-copaene thymol, hexadecanoic acid insecticidal activity. β-Caryophyllene cis-3-hexen-1-ol function herbivore-induced volatiles which sending warning signals undamaged tissues next plants same Farnesol farnesal interrupt insect juvenile hormone biosynthesis cause abnormal metamorphosis insects. Several triterpenes, lantanolic lantoic pomolic camarin, lantacin, camarinin, ursolic demonstrated nematocidal Lantadene A, β-caryophyllene, germacrene-D, β-curcumene, eicosapentaenoic loliolide possess antimicrobial Allelochemicals, caffeic ferulic salicylic α-resorcylic p-hydroxybenzoic vanillic unbelliferone, quercetin, including lantadenes B suppress germination growth These be camara’s expand an new habitats.

Mikania micrantha Kunth is native to tropical America and has invaded subtropical Asia numerous Pacific Islands. It forms dense thickets reduces species diversity populations in its introduced range. This invasive vine also seriously impacts many agricultural crops listed as one of the world’s 100 worst alien species. Its life history characteristics, such production large numbers wind-dispersed seeds, vegetative reproduction, rapid growth, genetic all contribute invasiveness. In this review, we focus on how mechanisms defend against natural enemies boost invasiveness M. micrantha. possesses potent defenses pathogenic fungi, herbivorous insects, parasitic nematodes, exhibits allelopathic potential plant competitors. These defensive abilities, concert with formidable micrantha, potentially leading further naturalization. Several other reviews have summarized biology management species, but ours first review likely enhance Relatively little known about array capabilities micrantha; therefore, there considerable scope for research chemical defenses.
