The Genetic Structure of Wild Orobanche cumana Wallr. (Orobanchaceae) Populations in Eastern Bulgaria Reflects Introgressions from Weedy Populations [PDF]
Orobanche cumana is a holoparasitic plant naturally distributed from central Asia to south-eastern Europe, where it parasitizes wild Asteraceae species. It is also an important parasitic weed of sunflower crops.

A Fructan 6-Exohydrolase from Orobanche cumana Boosts Waterlogging Tolerance in Parasitic and Root Tissues [PDF]
Plants adapt to abiotic stresses by a variety of physiological and molecular mechanisms, among which the root plays important roles via responding to underground and soilborne signals.

The penetration of sunflower root tissues by the parasitic plant Orobanche cumana is intracellular [PDF]
Key message: Combination of in vivo confocal, large field and transmission electron microscopy approaches revealed how intimate the relationship between the parasitic plant broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.) and its sunflower host (Helianthus annus L.) is at very early stages of their interaction.

Use of Blue-Green Fluorescence and Thermal Imaging in the Early Detection of Sunflower Infection by the Root Parasitic Weed Orobanche cumana Wallr. [PDF]
Although the impact of Orobanche cumana Wallr. on sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) becomes evident with emergence of broomrape shoots aboveground, infection occurs early after sowing, the host physiology being altered during underground parasite stages ...

Sunflower resistance to broomrape (Orobanche cumana) is controlled by specific QTLs for different parasitism stages [PDF]
Orobanche cumana (sunflower broomrape) is an obligatory and non-photosynthetic root parasitic plant that specifically infects the sunflower. It is located in Europe and in Asia, where it can cause yield losses of over 80%.

First case of evolved herbicide resistance in the holoparasite sunflower broomrape, Orobanche cumana Wallr. [PDF]
The development and commercialisation of sunflower varieties tolerant to acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibiting herbicides some 20 years ago provided farmers with an alternative method for the cost-effective control of Orobanche cumana. In 2020, however,

Current status of broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.) in Serbia [PDF]
Broomrape is the major issue in sunflower production in Serbia. Since its first occurrence, the species Orobanche cumana Wallr. had been responsible for considerable yield loss in some areas. In Serbia broomrape is present in the Vojvodina Province. Distribution and virulence groups of parasite are constantly monitored.

A potential role of heat-moisture couplings in the range expansion of <i>Striga asiatica</i>. [PDF]
Our research examines the effects of climate change on the distribution of parasitic weeds, such as Orobanche, Phelipanche, and Striga, which pose threats to global food security. Utilizing satellite data and GBIF observations, we find climate‐induced shifts in habitats and expansion patterns, notably the elevation increase of Striga asiatica ...
