Abstract

Broomrapes (Orobanche spp.) which belong to the family Orobanchaceae are obligate parasitic flowering plants. The main center of distribution is the Mediterranean basin, where large areas are heavily infested. Yield losses due to Orobanche range from 5 to 100% depending on the region and the crop.
