Witchweed’s Suicidal Germination: Can Slenderleaf Help?
(MDPI, 2020-06)
The parasitic plant Striga hermonthica (Delile) Benth. is stimulated to germinate by
biomolecules (strigolactones) produced in the roots of host and some non-host plants. Non-hosts
induce Striga’s suicidal germination ...
Phenomic characterization of Crotalaria germplasm for crop improvement
(Cabi, 2021-03)
Background: Diversifcation of global food systems through exploration of traditional varieties and wild edible plant
species is a focal mitigation strategy for food security worldwide. The present study determined the ...
A hybridization technique for orphan legumes: development of an artificial interspecific pollination protocol for Crotalaria spp.
(Taylor and Francis, 2020-08)
rotalaria brevidens: and C. ochroleuca commonly grown as
vegetables have been extensively studied. However, information
on breeding techniques is scanty. This study aimed to
develop an artificial interspecific pollination ...
