Radioisotopes in Weed Research

Herausgeber: Mendes, Kassio Ferreira

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Herbicides are of great importance in weed management but there are real concerns around the residual effects these chemicals have on the environment. This book shows how isotopic techniques can be used to identify degradation products and trace the fate of herbicides applied to crop plants.
