Modulation of Anaphase‐Promoting Complex Genes Regulates Root‐Knot Nematode Gall Development and Plant Susceptibility

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The anaphase‐promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a multi‐subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that regulates cell cycle progression, but its role in plant‐pathogen interactions is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that regulation of the ubiquitin–proteasome system, involving APC/C‐associated components, is critical for coordinating host cell ...

Developmental and cytochemical studies of the endosperm chalazal haustorium of Rhinanthus serotinus (Scrophulariaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We examined the development of the endosperm chalazal haustorium of Rhinanthus serotinus, using histochemical assays and light and electron microscopy. The chalazal haustorium is a huge single cell containing two enlarged nuclei.

Broomrape weeds. Underground mechanisms of parasitism and associated strategies for their control: a review.

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Broomrapes are plant-parasitic weeds which constitute one of the most difficult-to-control of all biotic constraints that affect crops in Mediterranean, central and eastern Europe, and Asia.

Cytokinins Promote Rust Susceptibility in Poplar by Suppressing Defence Signalling, Reducing Defence Accumulation and Reprogramming Primary Metabolism

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cytokinins (CKs), classically recognised as plant growth regulators, are increasingly implicated in plant‐microbe interactions. Studies in herbaceous plants suggest that CKs can function as signalling molecules with dual roles in plant defence, either restricting or facilitating pathogen infection.

Transcriptome analysis of mistletoe (Viscum album) haustorium development

open access: yes, 2014
The haustorium is a specific organ for penetration of host tissue in parasitic plants. To better understand the molecular mechanisms of the establishment of host-parasite relationships using gene expression profiles, early stage haustorium germination ...

The physiological anatomy of the haustorium of Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth. (Scrophulariaceae). [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The parasitic angiosperms are a diverse group of plants that obtain a proportion of the resources needed for growth, development and reproduction by parasitizing other flowering plants.

CRISPR gene editing to improve crop resistance to parasitic plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Genome Editing, 2023
Parasitic plants pose a significant threat to global agriculture, causing substantial crop losses and hampering food security. In recent years, CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) gene-editing technology has emerged as a ...

Understanding Plant Parasitism: Hydnora Africana and European Scientific Practice in the Early Nineteenth Century**

open access: yesBerichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 315-334, September 2026.
This article will analyze the uncertainties around collecting and classifying Hydnora africana in the first half of the nineteenth century. Emerging from the distinctive dryland ecologies of South Africa, Hydnora was interpreted as strange and cryptic by Europeans primarily because it is a root parasite—a complex floral trait that was little understood.

Harnessing plant susceptibility genes into strategies for enhanced disease resistance

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
Integrated model of S gene modules in plant pathogen interactions. This model summarises representative host susceptibility modules that can be exploited by bacterial, fungal and viral pathogens. In the bacterial infection module, Xanthomonas transcription activator‐like effectors activate OsSWEET14 through effector‐binding elements in its promoter ...
