Striga hermonthica is a serious biotic constraint to sorghum production in the dry savannas of subSaharan Africa but the use of improved cultivars and appropriate planting dates may help to control the weed. A two year trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of sowing dates on four sorghum cul...

Striga hermonthica is a serious threat to cereal production in the savannas of sub-Saharan Africa. Field trials were conducted in Nigeria at Abuja and Mokwa (southern Guinea savanna) in 2005 and 2006, and at Zaria (northern Guinea savanna) and Sabongari (Sudan savanna) in 2006, to evaluate the pe...

Striga hermonthica parasitism is a major constraint limiting Sorghum productivity in the Nigerian savanna. Field experiments were conducted in 2005 and 2006 rainy seasons to evaluate the response of sorghum varieties to striga infestation. A randomised complete block design was used to screen 12 ...

The parasitic angiosperms, Striga hermonthica and S. gesnerioides, obligate root parasites endemic in sub-Saharan Africa, constitute severe constraints to cereal and legume production in West and Central Africa. Over the years, a range of effective component technologies has been identified for S...

Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth. is a parasitic weed that attacks maize, sorghum, and other staple cereal crops in the West African savannas. It is widely believed that Striga thrives best in areas of low soil fertility. This study was conducted to determine the effects of nitrogen (N) fertilizat...
