This project focuses on understanding the molecular biology of parasitic plants, specifically Orobanche species, to develop new control methods. By utilizing plant genomics, the research aims to identify and silence specific parasite genes, enhancing crop protection strategies against these destructive weeds.
Parasitic weeds are among the most destructive and difficult-to-control of all weeds and cause important crop losses across Europe and neighbouring regions.
The intimate connection establishes by the parasite with the host vascular tissues makes unsuccessful the selective control of the parasite.
Our ability to understand the complexities of this parasitic plant-host interaction is limited by a lack of knowledge about the parasite itself, especially with respect to parasite genomics.
