About the Book

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 Much of the important material contained in "Allelopathy" has previously been unpublished in book form, including important new information relating to allelochemical applications ecosystems and fire-prone communities.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.

Table of Contents:
Contens.- 1 A discipline called allelopathy.- 2 Allelopathy: broadening the context.- 3 A conceptual framework for assessing allelochemicals in the soil environment.- 4 Allelopathic effects on nitrogen cycling.- 5 Allelopathic mechanism in fire-prone communities.- 6 Allelopathic effects of cruciferous plants in crop rotation.- 7 Improving yield of corn-soybean rotation: role of allelopathy.- 8 Biochemical selection of sorghum crop varieties resistant to sorghum shoot fly (Atherigona soccata) and stem borer (Chilo partellus): role of allelochemicals.- 9 Allelochemicals in wheat and barley: role in plant-insect interactions.- 10 Allelochemical properties of alkaloids. Effects on plants, bacteria and protein biosynthesis.- 11 Alfalfa saponins — the allelopathic agents.- 12 Allelopathy in alfalfa and other forage crops in the United States.- 13 Allelopathy in relation to agricultural productivity in Taiwan: problems and prospects.- 14 Effect of pine allelochemicals on selected species in Korea.- 15 Allelopathy in Brazil.- 16 Allelopathic research activity in Iraq.- 17 Impact of allelopathy in the traditional management of agroecosystems in Mexico.- 18 The allelopathic potential of aromatic shrubs in phryganic (east Mediterranean) ecosystems.- 19 Possible role of allelopathy in growth inhibition of softwood seedlings in Newfoundland.- 20 Allelopathy in Quebec forestry — case studies in natural and managed ecosystems.- 21 Pigeon pea and velvet bean allelopathy.- 22 Allelopathy in forest and agroecosystems in the Himalayan region.- 23 Neem allelochemicals and insect control.- 24 Allelopathy in the management of root-knot nematodes.- 25 Exploitation of allelochemicals in improving crop productivity.

Review :
..essential to scientists and students involved in allelopathic research...well presented and very readable. - Biological Agriculture and Horticulture; The book is illustrated excellently and clearly arranged. ... The clear construction of the chapters leads the reader directly to the information he looks for...the book gives a view of the present knowledge in allelopathy and can not only be recommended to specialists in this field but also to anyone who is interested - Journal of Plant Physiology
