Haustorium Inducing Factors for Parasitic Orobanchaceae [PDF]
Parasitic plants in the Orobanchaceae family include devastating weed species, such as Striga, Orobanche, and Phelipanche, which infest important crops and cause economic losses of over a billion US dollars worldwide, yet the molecular and cellular ...

A roadmap of haustorium morphogenesis in parasitic plants
Parasitic plants invade their host through their invasive organ, the haustorium. This organ connects to the vasculature of the host roots and hijacks water and nutrients.

Strigolactones initiate the formation of haustorium-like structures in Castilleja. [PDF]
Strigolactones serve as germination signals for several root-parasitic plant species within the Orobanchaceae family. Yet, their role in the life cycle of the facultatively parasitic genus Castilleja has remained elusive. Here, we demonstrate that strigolactones initiate the formation of haustorium-like structures in Castilleja.

Haustorium Induction Assay of the Parasitic Plant Phtheirospermum japonicum [PDF]
Phtheirospermum japonicum is a facultative root parasitic plant in the Orobanchaceae family used as a model parasitic plant. Facultative root parasites form an invasive organ called haustorium on the lateral parts of their roots.

The peptide hormone PjCLE1 stimulates haustorium formation in the parasitic plant Phtheirospermum japonicum. [PDF]
Phtheirospermum japonicum is a hemiparasitic plant of the Orobanchaceae, the largest family of parasitic plants. It extracts water and nutrients from other plants through haustoria along its roots.

Molecular translocation between parasitic plants and their hosts [PDF]
Parasitic plants are a special group deriving their nutrients from another plant, some of which such as witchweeds (Striga spp.) and broomrapes (Orobanche and Phelipanche spp.) are referred as weeds responsible for severe crop losses in agriculture.
