Resumo: This communication registers authors' impressions on the parasitism of Striga (Striga asiatica (L.) Kuntze) in Brazilian varieties of maize and dryland rice that were introduced in Mozambique. It was a rare opportunity to learn about this plant parasite in its native habitat, as it does not naturally occur in Brazil, although ecological conditions are favorable for its development. It is an important quarantine plant rigorously checked out of the country, because of the risks it poses to extensive Brazilian pasturelands and cereal cropland. We hope this report calls the due attention and helps to build up knowledge on the subject.
