New antimicrobials, insecticides and antioxidants are compiled in a single source for the first time based on the research and knowledge of several internationally renowned research groups. This book is organized in three sections: Part I provides a general overview and perspectives on antioxidant, medicinal and biocidal plant compounds; Part II provides information on plant antioxidants isolated from a wide range of species; and Part III describes insecticidal, antimicrobial and other biocidal activities based on peptides, phytoecdysteroids, alkaloids, polyphenols, terpenoids and other allelochemicals UR - https://dx.doi.org/10.1079/9781780642338.0000 ER -
