The potential threat of branched broomrape for California processing tomato: A review

California Agriculture, 2021
Branched broomrape (Phelipanche ramosa), a parasitic weed that was the focus of a $1.5 million eradication effort four decades ago in California, has recently re-emerged in tomato fields in several Central Valley counties.

Striga hermonthica: A highly destructive pathogen in maize production

Environmental Challenges, 2022
Maize is a major cereal crop in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Subsistence farmers mostly plant it in areas where the parasite Striga hermonthica's action often reduces the harvest.

Silencing of a mannitol transport gene in Phelipanche aegyptiaca by the tobacco rattle virus system reduces the parasite germination on the host root

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2022
Root parasitic weed Phelipanche aegyptiaca is an obligate plant parasite that causes severe damage to host crops. Agriculture crops mainly belong to the Brassicaceae, Leguminosae, Cruciferae, and Solanaceae plant families affected by this parasitic weed,

CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Mutagenesis of Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase (CCD) Genes in Sorghum Alters Strigolactone Biosynthesis and Plant Biotic Interactions

Phytobiomes Journal, 2023
Strigolactones are a group of small molecules that play critical roles in plant developmental processes and root biotic interactions. Strigolactones are agronomically important due to their role as a signal for the germination of a parasitic weed (Striga

Iridoid Glycosides Isolated from Bellardia trixago Identified as Inhibitors of Orobanche cumana Radicle Growth

Toxins, 2022
Orobanche cumana is an obligate holoparasitic plant with noxious effects in sunflower crops. Bellardia trixago is a facultative hemiparasitic plant that infects ruderal plants without noxious significance in agriculture and is known to produce a wide ...

The dynamics of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) parasitism by Orobanche foetida

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2010
The dynamics of Orobanche foetida parasitizing faba bean are examined using Petri dish experiments. Rates of broomrape seed germination and seedling attachment to the host roots were quantified on three resistant genotypes (the Egyptian line Giza 429 ...

INTEGRATIVE CONTROL OF BRANCHED BROOMRAPE (Orobanche ramosa L.) USING SOIL SOLARIZATION AND SOME CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES IMPROVES THE GROWTH AND YIELD OF TOMATO PLANTS [PDF]

Fayoum Journal of Agricultural Research and Development, 2020
Tomato cultivation in the Mediterranean region is susceptible to infestation by the parasitic weed branched broomrape (Orobanche ramose L.), and can lead to severe yield losses. Efficiency of individual soil solarization, soil disinfection technique that

A preliminary approach for modelling the effects of cropping systems on the dynamics of broomrape (Phelipanche ramosa) in interaction with the non-parasitic weed flora

Oléagineux, Corps gras, Lipides, 2011
The current decrease in herbicide use may increase and diversify weed flora in crops as well as companion bioagressors spreading via weeds. Among these bioagressors is Phelipanche ramosa (L.) Pomel, a parastic plant which is very harmful on oilseed rape.
