Assessing the Performance of Maize (Zea mays L.) as Trap Crops for the Management of Sunflower Broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.) [PDF]
Sunflower broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.) is a weedy root parasite that causes huge damage to sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). Trap crop can stimulate parasitic seed germination without attachment in trap crop, and it was considered as economic ...

Broomrape Threat to Agriculture [PDF]
The broomrapes are plants that have modified their biology to feed on roots of other plants, emerging above the soil only to flower. There are about 150 broomrape species, most of which infect wild plants in natural habitats without causing economic problems.

In the race with the broomrape – Is there a winner? [PDF]
Broomrape (Orobanche spp.) is a widespread, herbaceous, parasitic plant that has been known to attack various host plants, including sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). It is native to regions in Europe and Asia, and it co-evolved with various host plants and with the expansion of agriculture and the movement of crops around the world, broomrape was ...

Legume breeding for broomrape resistance [PDF]
Legume cultivation is hampered in Mediterranean regions by the occurrence of the root parasitic weeds Orobanche crenata (crenate broomrape) and Orobanche foetida (foetida broomrape). Strategies of control have been developed but only marginal successes have been achieved.
