Growth Assay for the Stem Parasitic Plants of the Genus Cuscuta

Bio-Protocol, 2017
Cuscuta spp. are widespread obligate holoparasitic plants with a broad host spectrum. Rootless Cuscuta penetrates host stems with so called haustoria to form a direct connection to the host vascular tissue (Dawson et al., 1994; Lanini and Kogan, 2005 ...

The parasitic plant Cuscuta australis is highly insensitive to abscisic acid-induced suppression of hypocotyl elongation and seed germination. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Around 1% of angiosperms are parasitic plants. Their growth and development solely or partly depend on host plants from which they extract water, nutrients, and other molecules using a parasitic plant-specific organ, the haustorium.

Living in Staghorn Fern Nests Alters the Distribution of Zealandia pustulata (Polypodiaceae) Along an Elevational Gradient on Lord Howe Island

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
The staghorn fern (Platycerium bifurcatum, Cav. Polypodiaceae) is an epiphyte that lives in cooperative colonies whose members work together to build a communal water and nutrient store. Previous research has shown that staghorn colonies are sometimes invaded by Zealandia pustulata (G.Forst.

An acyltransferase gene that putatively functions in anthocyanin modification was horizontally transferred from Fabaceae into the genus Cuscuta

Plant Diversity, 2016
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) refers to the flow of genetic materials to non-offspring, and occasionally HGT in plants can improve the adaptation of organisms in new niches due to expanded metabolic capability.

Secrets within stems: The cryptic Apodanthes caseariae (Apodanthaceae), a rare neotropical holoendoparasite

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 385-400, March 2026.
Holoendoparasites are extremely rare plants that live entirely hidden inside their hosts, with only flowers and fruits visible. We studied Apodanthes caseariae, found in central and South America, parasitizing Casearia sylvestris. Little is known about its life cycle.
