Striga research at IITA is conducted by multidisciplinary team. To coordinate and focus the activities of the team, two models have been developed that attempt to provide a framework for research. One model addresses the agro biological aspects of Striga seed population dynamics. This model shows...

This 6th symposium on parasitic plants was held in Spain in 1996 during which 101 papers were read, divided into 6 headings, including evolution and population structure, form, structure, biochemistry and physiology of the parasitic plant. The relationship between parasite and host, including met...

Taxonomic studies of the taxa clustered about Striga asiatica, S. hermonthica, and S. gesnerioides are presented based on a cladistic study of African plants. The S. asiatica cluster includes S. elegans, S. hirsuta, and S. lutea. Striga asiatica is considered to be derived from a native species n...

Background Maize yield potential is rarely maximized in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) due to the devastating effects of drought stress and Striga hermonthica parasitism. This study was conducted to determine the gains in grain yield and associated changes in an early-maturing yellow bi-parental maize ...

Striga gesnerioides is a serious parasite of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) on the Abomey plateau of southern Bénin. S. gesnerioides in southern Bénin has been characterized as a race that is different from those found in the dry savanna of West Africa. IITA breeding line IT93KZ-4-5-6-1-5 was used in...
