This book examines the chemistry and mode of action of herbicides,
insecticides, fungicides and plant growth regulators. It follows
crop protection strategies from early discoveries to the present
day, emphasising the biochemical targets of the compounds
discussed. Chemistry and Mode of Action of Crop Protection Agents
provides an in-depth, yet easy to read and understand, review of
the major classes of pesticides, explaining also the basis of their
activity and selectivity. Throughout, there are many references to
allow the reader to pursue areas of special interest, and each
chapter contains questions to ensure that the text has been
understood. This is the first book on the mode of action of
pesticides to have been published in over ten years, and as such
will have a very wide audience. It is aimed primarily at graduate
level but will also be relevant to the needs of some sixth form and
undergraduate courses, as well as to industrialists and advisors in
the field of crop protection.
