Certain plants and microorganisms are capable of releasing chemicals into their surrounding environment and these chemicals may have either deleterious or beneficial effects on other plants growing in their vicinity. The study of the naturally occuring phenomenon (allelopathy) and the chemicals responsible for such interactions (allelochemicals) is of vital importance and interest to many areas of biological science. The Editors of "Allelopathy" have drawn together an impressive international group of over 40 contributors who provide a thorough synthesis of all of the important aspects relating to the study of this subject including the already realized and potential applications of allelochemicals for use in agricultural systems. Much of the important material contained in "Allelopathy" has previously been unpublished in book form, including important new information relating to allelochemical applications ecosystems and fire-prone communities. There is no doubt that the application of the results of research into allelochemicals will lead to further improvements in crop productivity, pest control systems and the provision of greater understanding of problems relating to weed and disease control, phytotoxin production in plants and biological nitrogen fixation.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Science is essentially a descriptive and experimental device. It observes nature, constructs hypotheses, plans experiments and proposes theories. The theory is never contemplated as the 'final truth', but remains ever subject to modifications, changes and rejections. The science of allelopathy in a similar way has emerged, and exists on a similar footing; our endeavour should be to keep it fresh and innovative with addition of newer in formation and concepts with the rejection of older ideas and antiquated techniques. During the past few decades encouraging results have been obtained in various aspects of allelopathic researches. However, in addition to continuing efforts in all these directions, constant attempts are to be made to describe the mechanics of allelopathic activity in molecular terms and to discover ways and means to exploit it for the welfare of mankind. We feel that multidisciplinary efforts are the only tool to achieve this goal. It is the hope of the editors that this book will serve as a document which identifies an integrated approach, through which research both to understand and exploit allelopathy can be conducted. The present volume arose out of an attempt to bring together eminent scientists in allelopathy to describe their work, of a highly diverse nature, under one title. 508 pp. Englisch.
