简介：Based on an October 1999 conference held on Honolulu, this volume looks at the process of discovery in the field of crop protection. The 24 papers explore natural products, agricultural biotechnology, the combinatorial chemistry approach for synthesizing large numbers of compounds, and mode of action studies for the development of new insect control agents. Topics include fungicidal properties of cyclopropanecarboxamides, bioactive substances from medicinal plants, an integrated management program for clubfoot of cruciferous plants, and a specific inhibitor of brassinosteroid biosynthesis.
