Descrição
Saiba como as plantas e os insetos se comunicam por meio de emissões na faixa de frequência do infravermelho e por que os pesticidas venenosos não resolvem os verdadeiros problemas enfrentados pela agricultura. Neste livro inovador, Phil Callahan revela por que certos insetos são atraídos apenas por determinadas plantas, o papel dos feromônios na natureza e como as plantas sob estresse literalmente sinalizam aos insetos para que venham devorá-las.
