Book Biochemistry and Physiology of Herbicide Action

Download or read book Biochemistry and Physiology of Herbicide Action written by Carl Fedtke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herbicides are part of modern agricultural production systems and therefore contribute significantly to the economy of agricultural products. At the same time, herbicides are potent and specific inhibitors of plant metabolism and may therefore be used as valuable tools in basic plant physiological research. A well-known example is the photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicide diuron, known to plant physiologists as DCMU, which has become one of the essentials in modern photosynthesis research. Similarly, knowledge in other areas of plant metabolism may be advanced by the use of herbicides as specific inhibitors. This book describes the effects of herbicides on the metabolism of higher plants from the viewpoint of the plant physiologist. The material of this book is therefore, as far as possible, divided into areas of metabolism. This book intends (1) to present the reader with current knowledge and views in the area of herbicide modes of action and (2) to promote the future use of herbicides as metabolic inhibitors in plant physiological research to the advantage of both, the pesticide and the plant sciences.

Book Herbicides

Download or read book Herbicides written by Andrew Price and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2015-12-02 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herbicides are one of the most widely used groups of pesticides worldwide for controlling weedy species in agricultural and non-crop settings. Due to the extensive use of herbicides and their value in weed management, herbicide research remains crucial for ensuring continued effective use of herbicides while minimizing detrimental effects to ecosystems. Presently, a wide range of research continues to focus on the physiology of herbicide action, the environmental impact of herbicides, and safety. The authors of Herbicides, Physiology of Action, and Safety cover multiple topics concerning current valuable herbicide research.

Book Herbicides and Plant Metabolism

Download or read book Herbicides and Plant Metabolism written by A. D. Dodge and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review of the most important areas of the biochemistry of herbicide action. The introductory chapter begins with the field of herbicide discovery, followed by chapters dealing with the herbicidal inhibition of photosynthesis, carotenoid biosynthesis, lipid biosynthesis, and amino acid biosynthesis. The metabolism of herbicides is discussed with particular reference to the formation of toxic components from non-toxic chemicals, and also the inactivation of toxic chemicals as a basis for selectivity. The final chapters are concerned with mechanisms of herbicide resistance in plants and the possibility of transferring resistance to susceptible crops. A glossary of the most important herbicidal chemicals mentioned in the text is included.

Book Molecular Mechanisms of Herbicide Selectivity

Download or read book Molecular Mechanisms of Herbicide Selectivity written by D. E. Hathway and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because plants of different species vary in the way in which they take up, transport, and metabolize chemicals in the soil, selective herbicides can be synthesized. This book examines those aspects of plant physiology, principally in crop plants, which can be affected by herbicides; the possibilities that are offered by recombinant DNA technology for developing resistance to herbicides; and methods for exploiting or preventing acquired tolerance. The author also covers recent work on ultra-selective mycoherbicides and the use of allelochemicals as herbicide substitutes.

Book Herbicides and Plant Physiology

Download or read book Herbicides and Plant Physiology written by Andrew Cobb and published by Springer. This book was released on 1992 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the continuing effort to develop more environmentally friendly alternatives, traditional herbicides continue to be the major weapon against weeds in North America. The contribution made by herbicides to modern crop production in North America is spectacular and in order for effective development of new, safer agrochemicals to be formulated, it is essential for researchers to understand how these compounds work in plants and their surrounding environment. Although herbicides may be marketed internationally under different trade names in different countries, they are often generically identical. Hence the information drawn together in this book will be of interest on both sides of the Atlantic.
