Allelopathy: broadening the context

  • Chapter
Allelopathy

Abstract

The recent upsurge of interest in allelopathy, with major volumes of collected papers regularly published (Rice, 1984; Thompson, 1985; Putnam and Tang, 1986; Waller, 1987; Chou and Waller, 1989), has established the topic as one of biological significance, although the ecological impact of allelopathy remains a subject of debate.
