Zusatztext "...an essential text..."-- Biological Agriculture Horticulture! Vol 18! 2000"The book can be recommended to research and advanced university students."--Journal of Agronomy & Crop Science! March 2001 Informationen zum Autor Bryan and Ellie Stockton hope they left behind their demons when they move to their idyllic new home in southern West Virginia. Above all, they want a fresh start for their young son, Derrick, who witnessed the tumultuous first years of their marriage - years that were rife with substance abuse, rage, and resentment. Their bright hope for the future is darkened when a child disappears from their neighborhood. The couple becomes suspicious of a reclusive resident with a degenerative brain disorder. Strange events begin to happen in their house just as Derrick tells them about a new friend who visits him at night. Their son might be acting out from trauma he endured, or he could be the obsession of something much more sinister. Klappentext Die Unbedenklichkeit von Nahrungsmitteln und der Schutz der Umwelt haben nie eine größere Rolle gespielt als heute. Daher ist es unabdingbar, möglichst genau Bescheid zu wissen über die pflanzliche Verstoffwechslung von Agrarchemikalien sowie deren Überreste, die gegebenenfalls in der Pflanze verbleiben. Experten der agrarchemischen Industrie aus der ganzen Welt handeln primären Metabolismus, Pflanzenmetabolismus und gebundene Reste in diesem Buch umfassend und auf dem neuesten Stand ab. Zusammenfassung The importance of understanding the metabolism of agrochemicals in plants has never been greater. In a world where food safety and environmental concerns are increasing, knowledge of the metabolic processes within plants and the terminal residues of agrochemicals in food crops is invaluable.
