Applied Weed and Herbicide Science
Applied Weed and Herbicide Science [E-Book]
- 1st ed. 2022.
- XIII, 299 p. 103 illus., 74 illus. in color. online resource.
Aspects of biology and ecophysiology, survival mechanisms and weed classifications -- Weed competition and interference in crops -- Parameters of the phytosociological survey to evaluate the abundance, distribution and diversity of the weed community -- Methods of control and Integrated management of weeds in agriculture -- Retention, absorption, translocation and metabolism of herbicides in plants -- Induced hormesis in plants with herbicide underdoses -- Evolution of weed resistance to herbicides -- Genetically modified crops resistant to herbicides and weed control.
This textbook explores aspects of biology and ecophysiology of weeds, weed competition and interference in crops, phytosociological survey, methods of control and weed integrated management. Herbicides are of great importance in weed management and are one of the most widely used pesticide groups for weed control across the globe. Offering a new direction for research that focuses on herbicide behavior in plants, hormesis, evolution of weed resistance to herbicides, and genetically modified crops resistant to herbicides, this book covers the recent research in applied weed and herbicide science. This book provides essential and updated information on various subjects regarding the advances in herbicide science; and it is intended for professors, undergraduate, and graduate students, rural producers and other professionals involved in the area of applied weed and herbicide science. Agriculturists, analytical chemists, and toxicologists will find this book rewarding.
