Herbicides and Plant PhysiologySpringer Netherlands, 1992 - 176 sivua 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. |
