[Frontier fields of plant chemical ecology in the 21st century].
It has focused on chemical interactions between plant and other organisms, which mediated by secondary plant metabolites in recent years. Induced chemical defense in plant, plant chemical communication, relationships between secondary plant metabolites and evolution, chemical relationships between plant and human and chemical ecology of marine plant are the frontier fields needed attention of plant chemical ecology in the 21st century. Progress in these frontier fields of plant chemical ecology will play an important role in sustainable development, particular in increasing agricultural production and effective control of pest, disease and weed under ecological security in the 21st century.
