Best Answer

Black walnuts exhibit a trait known as allelopathy, which discourages the growth of other plants in the immediate vicinity by releasing a plant toxin through the roots. Since neighboring plants would compete for limited resources like light and water, this trait is advantaeous for the black walnut tree.
