Allelochemicals play a great role in managed and natural
ecosystems. Apart from plant growth, allelochemicals also may
influence nutrient dynamics, mycorrhizae, soil chemical
characteristics, and microbial ecology. Synergistic action of
various factors may better explain plant growth and distribution in
natural systems. The book emphasizes the role of allelochemicals in
shaping the structure of plant communities in a broader ecological
perspective. The book addresses the following questions: (1) How do
allelochemicals influence different components of the ecosystem in
terms of shaping community structure? (2) Why is it difficult to
demonstrate interference by allelochemicals (i.e., allelopathy) in
a natural system in its entirety? Despite a large amount of
existing literature on allelopathy, why are ecologists still
skeptical about the existence of allelopathy in nature? (3) Why are
there only scarce data on aquatic ecosystems? (4) What role do
allelochemicals play in microbial ecology?.....
