Description

Mode of Action of Herbicides Second Edition Floyd M. Ashton and Alden S. Crafts Completely revised and updated version of the basic introduction to the physiology and biochemistry of chemical weed killers. It summarizes current international information on each class of herbicide, including specific information on absorption and translocation, molecular fate, biochemical responses, and mode of action. 1981 (0 471-04847-X) 525 pp. Weed Ecology Implications for Vegetation Management Steven R. Radosevich and Jodie S. Holt This is the first book to deal specifically with weeds as a biologically important class of vegetation. This important work defines the concept of a weed in biological and ecological terms, and concentrates on the crop and weed responses caused by environmental change rather than the tools used to manipulate vegetation. It develops the underlying principles for weed management from studies of the adaptations of weeds to their environment and to other plants. 1984 (0 471-87674-7) 265 pp. Crop Protection Chemicals Reference Seventh Edition Completely updated for 1991, this standard reference provides the complete text of product labels for crop protection chemicals. Professionals will learn instantly what products can best treat a particular crop problem, what quantities of the chemical to use, and under what restrictions and precautions. The book includes extensive and easily accessed indices and appendices on such matters as codings when transporting products, safety practices, calibrations, and more. 1991 (0 471-53282-7) 2,206 pp.
