Explanation

Human travellers have always taken plants from one area to another. Potato was brought from New World by the Portuguese. Many economically important crops and plants such as maize, tobacco, groundnut, chillies, tea, cabbage,cauliflower, rubber etc. are dispersed by man, as they have been introduced to new areas from their orginal home. However, many weeds are also dispersed along with useful plants.
