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.

Development and application of a bioassay for assessing the dissipation rate of the synthetic strigolactone GR24 in soil

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.

Parasitic success of the pathogenic plant Phelipanche ramosa (L.) Pomel. (Orobanchaceae) differs in some re‐infected versus naïve tomato cultivars

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.

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 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 ...

Abscisic acid inhibits germination of Striga seeds and is released by them likely as a rhizospheric signal supporting host infestation

The Plant Journal, Volume 117, Issue 5, Page 1305-1316, March 2024.
SUMMARY Seeds of the root parasitic plant Striga hermonthica undergo a conditioning process under humid and warm environments before germinating in response to host‐released stimulants, particularly strigolactones (SLs). The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) regulates different growth and developmental processes, and stress response; however, its role ...

Effect of Rimsulfuron, Imazapic and Imazamox Herbicides on Broomrape (Orobanche aegyptiaca) in Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum) [PDF]

Ikufīziyuluzhī-i Giyāhān-i Zirā̒ī, 2016
Experiments, in Petri dish and greenhouse, were carried out to investigate the efficiency of three herbicides (rimsulfuron, imazapic and imazamox) in controling broomrape.

Are root parasitic broomrapes still a good target for bioherbicide control?

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 1, Page 10-18, January 2024.
Root parasitic weeds of the genera Orobanche and Phelipanche (commonly named broomrapes), responsible for enormous yield losses of several crops all around the world, are hardly manageable because of their physiological and biological properties. Although there are no commercial products and effective applications, microbiological control has enormous ...
