Combined use of improved maize hybrids and nitrogen application increases grain yield of maize, under natural Striga hermonthica infestation

open access: yesOpen Agriculture
Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth infestation is one of the major constraints to maize production in the Nigeria savannas. The application of nitrogen fertilizer to Striga-resistant hybrids may reduce Striga infection and increase grain yields.

Emploi d'herbicides pour lutter contre Striga hermonthica [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
La destruction des parties aériennes par différents moyens (arrachage, sarclage, désherbage chimique) limite la période de concurrence et empêche la production des graines. La date optimale des interventions se situe entre 50 et 70 jours après semis de la culture.

Testcross performance of Striga-resistant maize inbred lines and testers with varying levels of Striga reaction

open access: yesCABI Agriculture and Bioscience
Background Using a desirable tester is considered one method used to maximise genetic differences among test crosses derived from new inbred lines and improves the overall performance of maize. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the potency of the tester

A powerful molecular marker to detect mutations at sorghum LOW GERMINATION STIMULANT 1

open access: yesThe Plant Genome
The parasitic weed Striga (Striga hermonthica) limits productivity of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) and other cereals in sub‐Saharan Africa and elsewhere. Improved host plant genetics is an effective control method but verified loci contributing to Striga ...
