Crop diversification and parasitic weed abundance: a global meta-analysis
Parasitic weeds cause huge annual losses to food production globally. A small number of species from the genera Cuscuta, Orobanche, Phelipanche and Striga have proliferated across many agroecological zones. Their control is compromised due to the lack of

Evaluation of resistance and biochemical responses of different varieties of tomato to Dodder (Cuscuta campestris Yunck.) [PDF]
Dodder is a one of the major parasitic weeds in the world. Dodder infestations reduce crop yield and increase harvesting costs. Different methods have been suggested to control of dodder, but none of them have been able to control these plants reliably ...
