Broomrapes (Orobanche spp.) are major weeds of broadleaved crops in the Old World, but the three species established in Australia are not yet important weeds. Four species, crenate broomrape (O. crenata Forsk.), Egyptian broomrape, (O. aegyptiaca Pers.), branched broomrape (O. ramosa L.) and nodding broomrape (O. cernua Loefl.) are major potential agricultural weeds in Australia. To help detect new broomrape outbreaks a key to the main Australian and agriculturally important species has been prepared. To prevent establishment of broomrapes, farmers and weed control authorities must recognize broomrape before it becomes widespread.
