2nd International Conference on «Novel and Sustainable Weed Management in arid and semi-arid agro-ecosystems» 7-10 September Santorini Hellas

Could marine algae consist an auxilliary tool for Orobanche

management ?

Unusual life

High potential

of broomrape

Almost all control methods for broomrape have not proven to be as effective

economical and applicable as desired

A s c o p h y l l u m n o d o s u m (An)

An- informationAn is a member of the

order Fucales(apical cell group).

It generally grows upward in the

water column anchoring to hard

substrates using a holdfast.

Upward growth promotes the

maximum absorption of sunlight

for photosynthesis (Lobban 1985).

Step 2: Evaluation of A. nodosum components

…..growth regulators effect…..

“ …plant growth

regulators have a

stimulatory effect on

Orobanche seeds…”

(Batchvarova et al. )

Analysis of variance among the growth regulators showed differences not statistically significant (F-value: 4,13 p: 0.0522).

Beatine appeared to be the best seed stimulant relative to Kinetin, IAA and GA3, with higher mean values of germinability.

Step 3: Identifying the factors involved in An efficacy

Orobanche species (Ph. ramosa, Ph. aegyptiaca, O. crenata)

Temperature effect (18, 20, 23οC)

Population variability (18 Ph. ramosa, 16 Ph. aegyptiaca, 10 O. crenata)

Statistical analysis Response to stimulants best fit with Boltzmann
