A propos de cet article

Oversized hardcover, viii + 648 pages, shipping weight over 1kg, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. A few blank stickers inside the front board; a minor corner crease on a portion of leaves. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This fourth edition serves as a comprehensive and authoritative reference work on the science of plant toxicology. It provides a detailed overview of the effects of toxic substances - both natural and anthropogenic - on plant physiology, biochemistry, and ecology. The volume covers a wide range of toxicants, including heavy metals, air pollutants (such as ozone and sulfur dioxide), pesticides, and allelochemicals. It examines the mechanisms of toxicity at the cellular and molecular level, as well as the responses of plants to stress, including detoxification pathways and the production of stress proteins. The book is an essential resource for researchers and students in plant science, environmental science, ecotoxicology, and agriculture. -- Contents: 1. Characteristics of Plant Life: Hazards from Pollutants / Bertold Hock & Nicola M. Wolf; 2. Plant Stress: Avoidance, Adaptation, Defense / Harald Schempp, Susanne Hippeli & Erich F. Elstner; 3. Uptake and Transport of Xenobiotics / Markus Riederer; 4. Air Pollution: Trace Gases as Inducers of Plant Damage / Harald Schempp, Susanne Hippeli, Erich F. Elstner & Christian Langebartels; 5. Limitation of Salt Stress to Plant Growth / Yuncai Hu & Urs Schmidhalter; 6. Mineral Element Toxicities: Aluminum and Manganese / Walter J. Horst, Angelika Staß & Marion M. Fecht-Christoffers; 7. Herbicides / Carl Fedtke & Stephen O. Duke; 8. Molecular Basis of Toxic Effects: Inhibition of Cellular Pathways and Structural Components / K. Kramer & Bertold Hock; 9. Metabolism and Elimination of Toxicants / K.K. Hatzios; 10. Host-Pathogen Relations: Diseases Caused by Viruses, Subviral Organisms, and Phytoplasmas / Balazs Barna & Lorant Kiraly; 11. Interactions Between Host Plants and Fungal and Bacterial Pathogens / Ingrid Heiser, Jorg Durner & Christian Langebartels; 12. Allelopathy / Astrid Lux-Endrich & Bertold Hock; Index -- "The number of environmental compounds affecting plant metabolism and development is continuously increasing. This reference analyzes processes central to plant metabolism including uptake, distribution, and secretion of toxic material, and focuses on the recognition and prevention of damage associated with environmental pollutants. Contains new information never before offered in English. Addressing a critical issue in the biological sciences, this guide: - helps researchers to classify and target specific forms of plant damage; - supplies numerous horticultural and agricultural examples to illustrate key topics in the text; - discusses recent detoxification and remediation strategies; - considers the multitude of toxins affecting plant health; - studies diseases caused by viruses, subviral organisms, and phytoplasmas, as well as fungal and bacterial pathogens.". …
