Striga hermonthica seed inoculum rate effects on maize hybrid tolerance and susceptibility expression
A parasitic plant, Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth., infests millions of hectares of arable land in sub-Saharan Africa, and it threatens production of major cereal crops including maize (Zea mays L.). Erratic natural infestation is considered a major constraint to assess host plant resistance to the...
