Bidirectional mRNA transfer between Cuscuta australis and its hosts [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The holoparasitic dodder (Cuscuta spp.) is able to transfer mRNA and certain plant pathogens (e.g., viruses and bacteria) from the host plant. “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus,” the phloem-limited causative agent of citrus Huanglongbing, can be ...

Transcriptomic changes in donor soybean, dodder bridge, and the connected recipient soybean induced by cadmium addition [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceBackgroundCuscuta spp. (dodders) are parasitic plants that belong to the Convolvulaceae family. In nature, dodder often forms a bridge-like connection between two or more host plants like, which is known as a dodder bridge. Cadmium (Cd2+) is an important

Large-scale interplant exchange of macromolecules between soybean and dodder under nutrient stresses [PDF]
Plant DiversityParasitic plants and their hosts communicate through haustorial connections. Nutrient deficiency is a common stress for plants, yet little is known about whether and how host plants and parasites communicate during adaptation to such nutrient stresses ...
