Phenolic signals for prehaustorium formation in Striga hermonthica [PDF]
Striga hermonthica is a root parasitic plant that causes considerable crop yield losses. To parasitize host plants, parasitic plants develop a specialized organ called the haustorium that functions in host invasion and nutrient absorption. The initiation

A long-distance inhibitory system regulates haustoria numbers in parasitic plants. [PDF]
The ability of parasitic plants to withdraw nutrients from their hosts depends on the formation of an infective structure known as the haustorium. How parasites regulate their haustoria numbers is poorly understood, and here, we uncovered that existing ...
