Abstract "Weed control is a global problem in agriculture, there is constant effort both to develop and utilize herbicides. As part of the general widespread concern over the residual effects of chemicals applied to crop plants, the study of herbicide residues in plants and soil, and the detoxification of herbicides, has become essential. Isotopic techniques can be used to identify degradation products and trace the fate of the herbicide. This book provides: Comprehensive information on the analysis of data collected from research using radioisotopes. Discusses use of radioisotopes of weed research focussing on reviewing absorption, translocation, metabolism, bioaccumulation of pesticides"-- Provided by publisher.
