Morphological, Chemical, and Biological Characterization of Species from the Cupressaceae Family
The present book delves into the unique properties of three plant species: Tetraclinis articulata (Barbary Thuja), Juniperus phoenicea (Phoenician Juniper), and Cupressus sempervirens (Mediterranean Cypress). It provides an in-depth analysis of the morphological, chemical, and biological characteristics of these plants, with a focus on their allelopathic potential and their effects on the germination and growth of target species such as lettuce, radish, barley, and tomato. Through a combination of laboratory studies and real-world testing, this research uncovers how these species can be sustainably utilized in agro-ecosystem management. This work is ideal for researchers, students, and practitioners interested in phytotoxicity, plant biotechnology, and ecological solutions for agriculture.
The Chemistry, Nanoencapsulation and Bioherbicide Use of Allelochemicals
This monograph explores the in-depth chemistry behind allelopathy, a phenomenon marked by the release of chemicals into the environment from one plant on another plant causing direct or indirect effects. Allelopathy is an important key to the development of bioherbicides, nature-friendly herbicides preventing growth of herbicide-resistant weeds. Several allelopathy books in the market do not deal with the chemistry of allelopathy. This monograph is unique since (1) it deals with extensive chemistry of allelopathy, achieving better understanding of allelopathy, and (2) it deals with nanoencapsulation of allelochemicals for agricultural applications. This monograph is a valuable reference for employees in the agrochemical industry; a resource material in educating farmers; and a multidisciplinary book for scientists, researchers, students, and professors in agriculture, agricultural chemistry, agronomy, biology, botany, breeding, chemistry, genetics, horticulture, microbiology, molecular biology, material science, plant pathology, plant ecophysiology and ecology, plant physiology, plant protection, soil science, and weed science.

Building Climate Resilience in Agriculture
This volume discusses the need to adopt Climate-Resilient Agriculture (CRA) practices to address the increasing global impact that climate change has on agricultural productivity and agriculture-dependent communities. This approach applies technological, policy and economic measures to achieve sustainable agricultural growth in the sectors of grain, fruit, vegetable, fiber, feed, livestock, fisheries and forestry, with the ultimate goal of adapting and building resilience to climate change. The book also uses GIS, crop modeling and remote sensing techniques for future climate resilience applications in agriculture, and covers pest control measures that avoid the use of pesticides to boost crop and livestock productivity for improved food security. The book will be of interest to researchers and students in environmental science, climate science, sustainability and agriculture, as well as policy makers and environmental organizations.
