内容説明
The secondary metabolites of plants were once considered to be waste products - today, their true value is understood. New methods of separation and structural elucidation, and advances in the investigation of biochemical activities, have increased our understanding of secondary metabolites. Their function as a defense mechanisms offers a great potential for technological gain.
Secondary metabolites can be utilized in agriculture to breed stronger crops and in the manufacture of biorational pesticides. They can also be exploited by medicine as theraputic agents. And these are just two of the likely uses.
This landmark volume presents articles by an impressive team of experts from leading laboratories. Each chapter considers a current understanding of secondary metabolites in nature and the potential exploitation of those qualities by the biotechnology industry.

内容説明
Annual Plant Reviews, Volume 2 A comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of a subject in which our knowledge has advanced considerably over the past decade. Authors from leading laboratories around the world provide new insights into the integration of secondary metabolism into the physiology and ecology of plants. A chapter is included on chemotaxonomy based on molecular systematics.
