Whole-Range Assessment: A Simple Method for Analysing Allelopathic Dose-Response Data

Based on the typical biological responses of an organism to allelochemicals (hormesis), concepts of whole-range assessment and inhibition index were developed for improved analysis of allelopathic data. Examples of their application are presented using data drawn from the literature. The method is c...
