Secretions and emissions in biological systems play important
signaling roles within the organism but also in its communications
with the surrounding environment. This volume brings together
state-of-the-art information on the role of secretions and
emissions in different organs and organisms ranging from flowers
and roots of plants to nematodes and human organs. The plant
chapters relate information regarding the biochemistry of flower
volatiles and root exudates, and their role in attracting
pollinators and soil microbial communities respectively. Microbial
chapters explain the biochemistry and ecology of quorum sensing and
how microbial communities highly co-adapted to plants can aid in
bio-energy applications by degrading ligno-cellulosic materials.
Other chapters explain the biology of secretions by nematodes,
algae and humans, among other organisms. This volume will be a
welcome addition to the literature, as no other book covers aspects
related to biological secretion in such a holistic and integrative
manner.
