Yes, jalapeños (Capsicum annuum) exhibit allelopathic properties. They can release chemical compounds through their roots and decomposing leaves that may inhibit the growth of certain nearby plants, potentially affecting their germination and development. This allelopathic effect can influence plant competition in their surrounding environment. However, the extent and impact of this allelopathy can vary depending on specific conditions and neighboring plant species.
