GONZALEZ-VERDEJO, Clara I. et al. Sucrose application suppresses infection of the parasitic plant Orobanche ramosa in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum). Agrociencia [online]. 2008, vol.42, n.5, pp.513-517. ISSN 2521-9766.
Orobanche ramosa is an achlorophyllous holoparasitic weed that causes devastating losses in many commercial crops. An experiment was made using sucrose to evaluate its effect on the early growth stages of the parasite. Although O. ramosa germination was not statistically affected by sucrose, the radicle length, the number of attachments sites and the nodules formed decreased significantly.
