Secretions and Exudates in Biological Systems edited by Jorge M. Vivanco, František Baluška.

Secretions and emissions in biological systems play important signaling roles within the organism but also in its communications with the surrounding environment.  This volume brings together state-of-the-art information on the role of secretions and emissions in different organs and organisms rangi...
