I. The orobanchaceae and their parasitic mechanisms -- pt. II. The weedy orobanchaceae and their control. 330 $aThis book was written in response to significant recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of parasitism in the Orobanchaceae, and breakthroughs in the control of the parasitic weeds Striga and Orobanche. It consists of 26 contributions by internationally recognized leading scientists. The main book chapters are grouped into two parts: ·       Part I ? The Orobanchaceae and Their Parasitic Mechanisms ·       Part II ? The Weedy Orobanchaceae and Their Control The first part provides cutting-edge information on all key aspects of plant parasitism, such as the structure, development and function of the haustorium; nutrient transfer and the physiology of the parasite-host association; host reaction to parasitic plants; seed production and germination; the strigolactones and host-parasite signaling mechanisms; the parasite genome, phylogenetics, evolution and epigenetics; and ecology. Topics of the second part include: the problem posed by the weedy parasites; population diversity and dynamics; molecular diagnosis of seed banks; and detailed discussion of the various management strategies, including agronomic, chemical and biotechnological approaches, as well as host breeding for resistance, allelopathy and biological control.   This book is intended for plant scientists, university lecturers and students, agronomists and weed specialists, breeders and farmers, extension personnel and experts in tropical and subtropical agriculture. 606 $aOrobanchaceae$vClassification 606 $aPlant parasites 615 0$aOrobanchaceae 615 0$aPlant parasites. 676 $a570 676 $a571.2 676 $a572572 676 $a577.8/57 701 $aJoel$b Daniel M$01762186 701 $aGressel$b Jonathan$01111899 701 $aMusselman$b Lytton John$f1943-$0718226 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910741150603321 996 $aParasitic orobanchaceae$94201966 997 $aUNINA
