In the pot experiments conducted in the greenhouse and in the open, in the years 2009-2010, 2013-2014, and 2019-2020 in Skierniewice in Poland was found that Phelipanche ramosa L. Pomel (branched broomrape) can parasite on the roots of Galinsoga parviflora Cav. (gallant soldier) and was also confirmed its ability to parasite some vegetable crops such as Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. subsp. pekinensis (Lour.) Hanelt.) and the crops from Apiaceae family: carrot (Daucus carota L. subsp. sativus (Hoff.)), celeriac (Apium graveolens L. var. rapaceum (Mill)) and parsley (Petroselinum sativum (Mill) Fuss.). G. parviflora is a segetal weed that commonly infests crops in many countries, including Poland. It was found that Chinese cabbage is a better host for P. ramosa than G. parviflora but the possibility of parasitizing G. parviflora by P. ramosa is new information and it may be a new way to spread this parasite into new areas.
