Herbicide Activity
Developments in the understanding of herbicide activity and toxicology have expanded tremendously in the past fifteen years. Research on the mechanism of action of most major classes of herbicide chemistry has provided scientists with excellent insight into enzyme targets. More recently, developments in molecular biology have provided information about herbicide action at the genetic level. Less well understood are the toxicological aspects of herbicide activity that culminate in plant injury or death. Toxicology, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology of Herbicide Activity is a review of the recent literature on most of the major classes of herbicide chemistry in commercial use. The chapters include information about different aspects of herbicide activity related to photosynthesis, inhibition of amino acid biosynthesis, disruption of cell division and microtubule assembly, activity of phytohormone (auxin) mimics, inhibition of fatty acid biosynthesis and some developments in the understanding of herbicide resistance.

Modern Crop Protection Compounds, 3 Volume Set
This one-stop reference for everyone working in the agrochemical business is the leading reference in the field, with first-class authors from all major crop protection companies, including Bayer, Dow, Syngenta and BASF. In three volumes, one each on herbicides, fungicides and insecticides, it provides up-to-date information on the chemical properties, mode of action, range of application, industrial-scale synthesis and commercial products. The new edition has been updated and expanded by more than 50 new compounds and their mechanisms, for a complete picture of agrochemicals introduced since 1990. A truly comprehensive source of top quality information.
Plant Protein Engineering
This first volume of the plant and microbial biotechnology series introduces the concepts and potential of plant protein engineering and gives an account of current research in the field. An essential purchase for academic and industrial research institutions and professional biotechnologists.
Branched-chain Amino Acids
Volume 324 of Methods in Enzymology supplements Volume 166. It includes genetic information (cloning, gene expression) and information on human genetic diseases not available when Volume 166 was published.
Herbicides Chemistry
Conveniently gathering up-to-date information on herbicides' chemistry, degradation, and mode of action in one source, this reference discusses glyphosate and the traits that have made it so successful ... investigates the adsorption of polycyclic alkanoic acids' ester into targeted plants ... documents sulfonylureas' selectivity, environmental compatibility, groundwater safety, and low use rate ... explains metribuzin's combination with other herbicides to increase weed control for soybeans, potatoes, and tomatoes ... and examines alachlor and metolachlor for controlling annual grasses, broadleaf weeds, yellow nutsedge in corn, soybeans, and many other crops. Extensively referenced and illustrated, Herbicides, Volume 3 is an outstanding reference for soil scientists, agronomists, microbiologists, biochemists, agricultural chemists, botanists, environmental scientists, and plant nutritionists and pathologists. Book jacket.
Target Sites for Herbicide Action
The development of chemicals to selectively control the growth of weeds has been a fascinating success story which has unfolded largely during the last four decades. The dramatic growth of herbicide research that followed the wartime discoveries of the auxin-type herbicides (phenoxyalkanoic acids) resulted in a whole range of compounds and mixtures which are used to eliminate broad-or narrow-leaved weeds from agricultural, horticul tural, or forestry crops. Today, the safe use of this armament of compounds requires our understanding of their mode of action, metabolism, and environmental persistence. The most recently developed herbicides are highly effective inhibitors of specific enzyme sys...
Affectionately...In Jesus and Mary
This collection of short stories examines the lives of five very different men as they study for the priesthood and experience seminary life. Affectionately in Jesus and Mary presents a collection of related short stories about the lives of five very different men. Each man is studying for the priesthood, but they approach their seminary studies very differently. The stories chronicle the day-to-day sacred, secular, holy, sinful, heroic, and petty thoughts, words, and deeds of the five men as they journey through each of the stages of training and formation that culminate in ordination into the priesthood. Vinnie Lauter tries to account for his need to always be the center of attention, even...
Thiamine
Thiamine: Catalytic Mechanisms in Normal and Disease States brings together the most recent developments in thiamine diphosphate (TDP)-requiring enzyme research and details the mechanisms of catalysis and structure-function relationships, as well as pathophysiological aspects of a spectrum of diseases associated with TDP-requiring enzymes. Providing new insights into neurogenerative diseases, this volume associates defects in the function of TDP-dependent enzymes with numerous metabolic disorders and disease states and offers novel aspects of thiamine enzymes in chiral synthesis as well as new perspectives on the cellular role of thiamine triphosphate and thiamine triphosphates.
