Several hundred herbicides have been developed which inhibit nineteen target sites. However, pressure on the development of environmentally-friendly herbicides has been increased by GOs and NGOs due to mammalian toxicity and environmental contamination by few herbicides. Researchers in author's laboratory conducted experiments to find herbicidal plants and environmentally-friendly herbicidal compounds from them for more than five years. In this review, herbicidal activity of 533 plants from 491 species in 105 families was introduced and characteristics of herbicidal plants was described with special emphasis.
