What is it about?
ABSTRACT The molecular structures of Signaling Chemicals in Plants with allelochemical potential are in cyclic form and are much more complex than the simple, and linear structures formed by carbon-hydrogen chains (C-H). The chains of Signaling Chemicals in Plants with allelochemical potential they are connected to each other by C bonded to O and H, along with N and S atoms (not being identified in other categories of non-primary plant biocompounds). It is appealing that there is no compound with allelochemical potential with the same molecular structure, which is isomers.

Why is it important?
Each potential allelochemical mixture is made up of an adhibition of thousands, of distinct biocompounds. Biocompounds with allelochemical potential or Signaling Chemicals in Plants can represent between 90 and approximately 500 biocompounds with allelopathic potential beneficial for plant protection. This makes Signaling Chemicals in Plants such effective natural weapons.
Perspectives
The chemistry of allelochemical Signaling Chemicals in Plants, also called “natural herbicides,” is an immediate effect of the way they are grown, harvested, and processed.
