• On-farm evaluation of the 'push-pull' technology for the control of stemborers and striga weed on maize in western Kenya (2008, background): “…to genus Striga (Scrophulariaceae) comprise obligate root parasites of cereal crops that inhibit normal host growth via three processes, competition for nutrients, impairment of photosynthesis (Joel, 2000) and a phytotoxic effect within days of attachment to its hosts (Gurney et al., 1999, 2006).”
• The strigolactone story. (2010, background): “The manipulation of these signals may therefore provide a means to reduce infection by these parasites in agricultural fields (51).”
• Screening techniques and sources of resistance against parasitic weeds in grain legumes (2006, background): “Several strategies have been developed for the control of parasitic weeds, from cultural practices to chemical control (Parker & Riches, 1993; Joel, 2000b; Rubiales et al., 2003b,d; Pérez-de-Luque et al., 2004a), but all without unequivocal success.”
• The Strigolactone Germination Stimulants of the Plant-Parasitic Striga and Orobanche spp. Are Derived from the Carotenoid Pathway1 (2005, background): “Because of the extremely low concentrations of germination stimulants produced by hosts (in the order of 1027 to 10215 M; Joel, 2000), analytical techniques such as the use of stable-isotope-labeled precursors to decide on the biosynthetic origin are not sensitive enough.”
• Changes in the sensitivity of parasitic weed seeds to germination stimulants (2004, background): “The germination stimulants are active in extremely low concentrations, from 10 7 to 10 15 M (Joel, 2000), and thousands of plants were required to isolate and identify the germination stimulants mentioned above.”
• Combined control of Striga hermonthica and stemborers by maize-Desmodium spp. intercrops (2006, background): “are obligate root parasites that inhibit host growth via two processes, competition for nutrients and impairment of photosynthesis (Joel, 2000).”
• Sesquiterpene Lactones: More Than Protective Plant Compounds With High Toxicity (2016, background): “Strigolactones represent the first and most important group of metabolites characterized as germination stimulants, and most are active at extremely low concentrations in the nanomolar range or lower (Bouwmeester et al., 2003; Joel, 2000; Sato et al., 2005; Matusova et al., 2005).”
