Integrated control of the parasitic angiosperm Orobanche (Broomrape)

  • Chapter
Expanding the Production and Use of Cool Season Food Legumes

Part of the book series: Current Plant Science and Biotechnology in Agriculture ((PSBA,volume 19))

Abstract

Various studies have been conducted on integrated control of the parasitic angiosperm Orobanche (broomrape). This research, including combinations of cultural, physical, and chemical methods, as well as the use of tolerant hosts, has largely focused on faba bean (Vicia faba). The most promising results have been obtained with a combination of slightly delayed sowing and low concentrations of imidazolinone herbicides, such as imazaquin, imazapyr, and imazethapyr, and/or glyphosate. Under certain conditions imazapyr and imazethapyr could also be used in other food legumes, such as lentil (Lens culinaris), field pea (Pisum arvense), and chickpea (Cicer arietinum). In faba bean, lines were recently developed (mainly from the cultivar Giza 402), which are tolerant to Orobanche. There is continued interest in the potential of biological Orobanche control. However, from a practical point of view, it may be concluded that it is not yet feasible to include biological agents in integrated Orobanche control.
