Germination stimulation of striga gesnerioides seeds by hosts and nonhosts

Autor: Berner, D.K. Williams, O.A.

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is an important source of protein in Africa, but production is hindered by the parasitic plant Striga gesnerioides. Crop rotation with non-host cultivars, selected to stimulate parasite seed germination, is being used successfully to control other Striga spp. and may ha...

Assessment of reliability of secondary traits in selecting for improved grain yield in drought and lownitrogen environments

Autor: Badu-Apraku, B. Akinwale, R. Franco, J. Oyekunle, M.

Grain yield of maize (Zea mays L.) has low heritability under low soil nitrogen (low N) and drought, necessitating the use of secondary traits with strong associations with yield forselection. A base index involving anthesis– silking interval, plant and ear aspects, earsper plant, and stay green ...

Selection of rhizobacterial strains for suppression of germination of Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth. seeds

Autor: Ahonsi, M.O. Berner, D.K. Emechebe, A.M. Lagoke, S.T.O.

Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth. is an obligate root-parasitic flowering plant that severely threatens cereal production in sub-Saharan Africa. A potential biological control option for reduction of crop yield–loss within the season of application is the use of soil-borne antagonists of S. hermon...

Genetic variability for grain yield and components in an early tropical yellow maize population under Striga hermonthica infestation

Autor: Badu-Apraku, B. Menkir, A. Lum, F.

A major problem that usually confronts the breeder is ensuring that there is sufficient genetic variability in a population for the trait being improved because this determines the breeding schemes to use for improvement and whether or not sufficient progress could be made. Three hundred full-sib...

A participatory approach to increasing productivity of maize through Striga hermonthica control in Northeast Nigeria

Autor: Kamara, A.Y. Ellis-Jones, J. Amaza, P. Omoigui, L.O. Helsen, J. Dugje, I.Y. Kamai, N. Menkir, A. White, R.W.

Striga hermonthica is a parasitic weed that attacks maize, sorghum and other staple cereal crops and has long been considered one of the greatest biotic constraints to cereal production in Africa. Use of resistant or tolerant maize varieties, a maize–legume rotation using trap crops that stimulat...

Cultivar and nitrogen fertilization effects on Striga infestation and grain yield of early maturing tropical maize

Autor: Kamara, A. Menkir, A. Chikoye, D. Omoigui, L.O. Ekeleme, F.

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...

Influence of farmers crop managemnt practices on Striga hermonthica infestation and grain yield of maize (Zea mays L.) in the savanna zones of northeast Nigeria

Autor: Dugje, I.Y. Kamara, A.Y. Omoigui, L.O.

The aim of this study was to assess the influence of farmers` crop management practices on Striga infestation and maize grain yield. Sixty farmers` fields were randomly selected in nine communities across three savanna zones. About 35% of the farmers had cultivated their fields for over 10 years,...

Assessment of reactions of diverse maize inbred lines to Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth

Autor: Menkir, A.

Striga hermonthica is the most widespread and destructive obligate root parasite infecting maize and other cereals in Africa. Maize inbred lines supporting reduced S. hermonthica emergence can form an important basis for developing Striga‐resistant maize cultivars. Twenty new inbred lines selecte...
