Abstract

Except the reference made in the Editorial Noteof the Agricultural Journal of India(1906)and by Palm and Heuser(1924)very little is known about the parasitism of Striga on rice.It may possibly be due to the fact that rice is grown essentially under swamp conditions where the parasite cannot thrive.There are however tracts that are infested with Striga Intes as in the Mlabar Coast of Madras where rice grown as a rained crop on the slopes of hills (modan lands)during the South-west monsoon between June and September.
