Induced Resistance to Striga hermonthica in Sorghum by Gamma Irradiation

open access: yes, 2020
Striga species affect the potential productivity of cereals in sub-saharian Africa due to the lack of durable Striga-resistance in host crops. This study aimed at inducing new source of resistance in sorghum using gamma irradiation. Dry seeds of three Sorghum varieties; Grinkan, ICV1049 and Sariaso14 were gamma-irradiated with 200 Gy, 300 Gy, 400 Gy ...

Understanding the present distribution of the parasitic weed Striga hermonthica and predicting its potential future geographic distribution in the light of climate change

open access: yesJulius-Kühn-Archiv, 2012
Parasitic weeds of the genus Striga (Orobanchaceae) are a major constraint to agricultural production in the semi-arid regions in Sub-Saharan Africa. Therefore, Striga hermonthica’s current and future distribution needs to be estimated urgently in order ...

Identification of new maize inbred lines with resistance to Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth.

open access: yesJournal of Crop Protection, 2012
Striga hermonthica is a noxious, obligate hemi-parasite of cereal grasses that causes severe grain yield loss in susceptible maize cultivars in Africa. The development of host plant resistance is one of the most practical Stiga control strategies.
