Control strategies have centred around agronomic practices, resistant varieties and the use of herbicides. Novel integrated control programmes should be sympathetic to agricultural extensification while exerting minimal harmful effects on the environment. This eBook covers recent advances in biology, physiology of parasitism, genetics, population dynamics, resistance, host-parasite relationships, regulation of seed germination, etc., in order to offer an outstanding windows to these enigmatic plants, and contribute to their practical management UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/40329 UR - https://www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/3938/advances-in-parasitic-weed-research UR - www.oapen.org ER -
