Can we breed for durable resistance to broomrapes?
Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2018 The broomrapes (Orobanche and Phelipanche) are parasitic plants that have modified biology to feed on other plants, completely losing autotrophic capability. Some broomrape species have adapted to agricultural ecosystems becoming parasitic weeds.

Weed Research, Volume 65, Issue 2, March/April 2025.Abstract Root parasitic weeds of the genera Striga, Orobanche, and Phelipanche cause enormous economic losses for farmers the world over. Germination of the seeds of these species requires a chemotropic signal in the form of strigolactones in the soil.

The status of Orobanche crenata in Sicily and preliminary observations on Orobanche crenata susceptibility in Vicia faba [PDF]
, 2013 Since more than 10 years we are recording Orobanche crenata populations variations and testing traditional remedies to assess their applicability in a low impact agriculture that may be applied also in developing countries.

Weed Research, Volume 65, Issue 2, March/April 2025.Abstract Plants are exposed to infection and predation by organisms from most kingdoms of life, including their own. Layers of molecular defence mechanisms have evolved to limit damage and disease from microbial and insect pathogens, and plants can also defend themselves against attack by members of their own kingdom.

Recent advances in Broomrapes research [PDF]
Journal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2012 Orobanchaceae (broomrapes) is a morphologically diverse family of predominantly herbaceous, parasitic plants. The majority of species are facultative or obligate root parasites that subsist on broad-leaf plants, thereby depleting them of nutrients ...

Multiple genotypes of Phelipanche ramosa indicate repeated introduction to the Americas
American Journal of Botany, Volume 112, Issue 1, January 2025.Abstract Premise Phelipanche ramosa is an economically damaging parasitic plant that has been reported in North America since the late 1800s. While this species comprises a variety of genetically distinct host races in its native range, the genetic composition of adventive populations in the New World remains unexplored.

Recent advances in the biocontrol of Orobanche (broomrape) species
, 2001 Parasitic broomrapes (Orobanche spp.) are major uncontrolled weeds in the Mediterranean regions of Europe and the Near East causing major losses to vegetable, grain legume, and sunflower crops. Selective herbicides alone cannot provide persistent, season-
