There are many good books in the market dealing with the subject of
allelopathy. When we designed the outline of this new book, we
thought that it should include as many different points of view as
possible, although in an integrated general scheme. Allelopathy can
be viewed from different of perspectives, ranging from the
molecular to the ecosystem level, and including molecular biology,
plant biochemistry, plant physiology, plant ecophysiology and
ecology, with information coming also from the organic chemistry,
soil sciences, microbiology and many other scientific disciplines.
This book was designed to include a complete perspective of
allelopathic process. The book is divided into seven major
sections. The first chapter explores the international development
of allelopathy as a science and next section deals with
methodological aspects and it explores potential limitations of
actual research. Third section is devoted to physiological aspects
of allelopathy. Different specialists wrote about photosynthesis,
cell cycle, detoxification processes, abiotic and biotic stress,
plant secondary metabolites and respiration related to allelopathy.
Chapters 13 through 16 are collectively devoted to various aspects
of plant ecophysiology on a variety of levels: microorganisms, soil
system and weed germination. Fundamental ecology approaches using
both experimental observations and theoretical analysis of
allelopathy are described in chapters 16 and 17. Those chapters
deal with the possible evolutionary forces that have shaped
particular strategies. In the section named "allelopathy in
different environments", authors primarily center on marine,
aquatic, forest and agro ecosystems. Last section includes chapters
addressing application of the knowledge of allelopathy.
