Many people in the world are suffering from various allergy-related diseases, such as allergic conjunctivitis, rhinitis, asthma, and anaphylaxis, caused by the pollen grains of weeds. More than thirty percent of the population in Korea is reported to have been suffering from pollen allergies. Despite their adverse effects on public health, little is known about allergic weeds and their distribution in Korea. The authors introduce the mechanism of action of allergies, the domestic weeds that cause allergies and their distribution in Korea, and the implications of the allergy-causing weeds. Most of allergies are caused by the pollen from the flower of weeds, e.g., Humulus, Rumex, Chenopodium, Kochia, Atriplex, Amaranthus, Plantago, Ambrosia, Xanthium, Solidago, Erigenom, and Chrysanthemun plants, which are discussed in this review. Recently the increasing of the concentration of fine dust and pollen became a great cause of an allergic disease, just like the diagnostic yield of allergic coryza. The effects of weeds on people's health are expected to become an important research topic among members of the Korean society of weed science.
