Biologically Active Natural Products: Agrochemicals

Biologically Active Natural Products: Agrochemicals examines natural products that have both plant growth regulatory properties and pharmaceutical properties. Featuring over 200 tables, this text links agrochemistry and pharmaceutical chemistry in an easy to read presentation for practitioners in both fields. Due to the intense and widespread attention being given to the undesirable side-effects of commercial herbicide products such as residual contamination, resistance, ecosystem impairments, and waste generation, the discovery of new, natural herbicides that are biologically safe will prove to be significant and profitable.
