The goat is unharmed when it consumes the shrub, however, the beetle loses significant quantities of food and may accidentally be eaten by the goat. This mode of amensalism is called competition

An example of antibiosis is the interaction between Penicillium and bacteria. The mould Penicillium creates the secretion known as penicillin, which is extremely toxic to bacteria. This finding formed the basis for the first true antibiotic – called penicillin.

The classic demonstration of antibiosis is the destructive effect that the bread mould Penicillium has upon certain bacteria; the secretion, known as penicillin, has become a potent medicine in combating bacterial infections. Some higher plants secrete substances that inhibit the growth of—or kill outright—nearby competing plants. An example is the black walnut (Juglans nigra), which secretes juglone, a substance that destroys many herbaceous plants within its
