Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An exploratory research on useful substances in Striga was conducted with the aim of controlling the weed "Striga", which parasitizes sorghum, which is the main grain in the world, and causes great damage to the yield. As a result, we succeeded in determining the structure of flavonoid derivatives, and speculate that these are the reasons why Striga has been used as a medicinal plant since ancient times. We were able to establish a system to conduct on-site demonstration experiments of herbicidal effects. The transfer of analytical technology to Sudanese researchers was also promoted as planned.
