Phytotoxin
Phytotoxin refers to a substance produced by a plant that is toxic or a substance that is toxic to the plant. Many substances produced by plants are secondary metabolites and are the by-products of primary physiological processes. Some examples of phytotoxins exist among the plant secondary compound classes of alkaloids, terpenes, and especially phenolics, though not all such compounds are phototoxic. They can be found as well in herbicides and substances produced by bacteria.
