Wood distillate (WD), also known as wood vinegar or pyroligneous acid, is traditionally applied as a pesticide in Asian countries. Recently, its efficacy as a corroborant for crops has been reported, but little is known about its mode of action, nor a molecular biology-based approach is hardly ever applied to investigate it. In this mini review we analyze the literature on the topic, trying to suggest how the molecular biology may help us to understand how WD influence that the plants development.

Abstract
Wood distillate (WD), also known as wood vinegar or pyroligneous acid, is traditionally applied as a pesticide in Asian countries. Recently, its efficacy as a corroborant for crops has been reported, but little is known about its mode of action, nor a molecular biology-based approach is hardly ever applied to investigate it. In this mini review we analyze the literature on the topic, trying to suggest how the molecular biology may help us to understand how WD influence that the plants development.File in questo prodotto:
