Allelochemistry, the production and release of toxic chemicals produced by one species that affect a receiving susceptible species, has been the subject of diverse degrees of scientific enquiry. Recent advances in plant biology have permitted the revamp of allelochemistry as a biologically and ecologically sound explanation for plant invasion and plant-plant communication in the rhizosphere. Recent progress has been made in understanding the biochemical and molecular changes that are induced by allelochemicals in susceptible plant species, and the complex mechanisms that are used by allelochemical-resistant plants to defend against this toxic insult.
化感作用,即一种物种产生并释放影响另一敏感受体物种的有毒化学物质,一直是不同程度科学探究的主题。植物生物学的最新进展使得化感作用得以重新审视,成为对植物入侵以及根际中植物与植物间交流的一种生物学和生态学上合理的解释。在理解化感物质诱导敏感植物物种发生的生化和分子变化,以及化感物质抗性植物用于抵御这种毒性侵害的复杂机制方面,已经取得了最新进展。
