Popis: SUMMARY New broomrape races threaten sunflower production in Turkey. Pioneer hybrid P-4223 was resistant in all parts but TARSAN-1018 and some inbred lines were resistant only in some areas in Trakya region. At least one or more new races than F race appear to exist in the region. Use of imidazolinone herbicide and resistant hybrid started in 2003. Farmers used this Clearfield System ® without any problem. This system will be preferred in coming years by farmers in areas problematic for broomrape and weeds, for use together with sunflower cultivars genetically resistant to broomrape.
