Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Sorghum yields in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are greatly reduced by parasitic plants of the genus Striga (witchweed). Vast global sorghum genetic diversity collections, as well as the availability of modern sequencing technologies, can be potentially harnessed to effectively manage the parasite. RESULTS: We used laboratory assays - rhizotrons to screen a global sorghum diversity panel to identify new...
