Volatile organic chemicals, either as individual compounds or complex\nchemical blends, are a communication medium operating between plants and any\norganism able to detect the compounds and respond.  The ecological and\nevolutionary origins of particular interactions between plants and the greater\ncommunity have been, and will continue to be, strenuously debated. However, it\nis clear that chemicals, and particularly volatile chemicals, constitute a\nmedium akin to a linguistic tool.  As well as possessing a rich chemical\nvocabulary, plants are known to detect and respond to chemical cues. \nThese cues can originate from neighbouring plants, or other associated\ncommunity members. This book beginswith chapters on the complexity of chemical\nmessages, provides a broad perspective on a range of ecological interactions\nmediated by volatile chemicals, and extends to cutting edge developments on the\ndetection of chemicals by plants.       \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-05-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319815305\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-33498-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 326\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50148626464908,"sku":"9783319815305","price":224.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319815305.jpg?v=1779566495","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319815305","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
