Resistance to Orobanche crenata Forsk. in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.): exploring some potential altered physiological and biochemical defense mechanisms
Management of broomrape (Orobanche crenata Fosk.) that causes important damages on lentil production becomes a veritable concern in the Mediterranean region. Eighty lentil accessions were evaluated for resistance to O. ...
Achievements of the national faba bean (viciafubal.) breeding program in Tunisia
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is the most important grain legume cultivated in Tunisia. In the northern favorable regions of the country, it play an important role in the wheat based cropping systems due to its ability to fox ...
The problem of Orobanche in Tunisia: current state, specificity and main results of the national Faba bean breeding program to improve tolerance/resistance to Orobanche foetida and Orobanche crenata
In Tunisia legume crops suffer from several problems mainly broomrape attacks (Orobanche spp. and Phelipanche spp.) causing severe damages and
important yield losses mainly on faba bean. Among the several species reported ...
Distribution and genetic diversity of Orobanche in Tunisia
Abstract
Orobanche foetida is an obligate parasite which infects the roots of host legumes range in Tunisia and in particular the faba bean causing severe
damage to this crop. The use of molecular markers may be a suitable ...
Development of new large seeded faba bean (Vicia faba L.) genotypes resistant to broomrape
Broomrapes are one of the major constraints limiting faba bean cultivation and production in the Mediterranean and Sub-Saharan Africa regions. The infested areas are in continuous expansion due to the fast spread and ...
Effect of Benzothiadiazole and Salicylic Acid Resistance Inducers on Orobanche foetida Infestation in Vicia faba
The broomrape or orobanche (Orobanche foetida) is considered as an important agricultural problem of faba bean (Vicia faba var. minor) production in Tunisia. The effect of salicylic acid (SA) and benzothiadiazole (BTH) on ...
Major achievements in faba bean breeding in Tunisia
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is the major food legume crop in Tunisia occupying around 60,000 ha representing almost 80% of the total food legume areas. It contributes to the improvement and the sustainability of wheat ...
Orobanche foetida control in faba bean by foliar application of Benzothiadiazole (BTH) and Salicylic Acid
Orobanche foetida is considered as an important agricultural problem of faba bean production in Tunisia. The effect of
salicylic acid SA and 1, 2, 3-Benzothiadiazole-7-carbothioic acid, S-methyl ester (BTH) as foliar ...
Performance of faba bean genotypes with Orobanche foetida Poir. and Orobanche crenata Forsk. infestation in Tunisia
Orobanche foetida Poir. and O. crenata Forsk. are major constraints to faba bean (Vicia faba L.) cultivation in Tunisia. To
evaluate the different levels of resistance of seven small-seeded faba bean genotypes to these ...
Antioxidant and Antibacterial Activities of the Parasitic Plants Orobanche Foetida and Orobanche Crenata Collected on Faba Bean in Tunisia
The antioxidant activity of the methanolic and aqueous extracts of two parasitic plants Orobanche crenata and
Orobanche foetida collected from faba bean fields was investigated with 2 complementary test systems, DPPH ...
