One organ to infect them all: the Cuscuta haustorium [PDF]
Abstract Background Research on the parasitic plant genus Cuscuta has flourished since the genomes of several of its species were published. Most of the research revolves around the iconic infection organ that secures the parasite’s sustenance: the haustorium.

Cuscuta species: Model organisms for haustorium development in stem holoparasitic plants
Parasitic plants are notorious for causing serious agricultural losses in many countries. Specialized intrusive organs, haustoria, confer on parasitic plants the ability to acquire water and nutrients from their host plants.

Comprehensive biochemical profiling of coconut haustorium for innovative food industry applications [PDF]
Coconut haustorium is a tropical delicacy that mobilizes nutrients from the endosperm to nourish the germinating embryo. This study profiles coconut haustorium for sugars, organic acids, phenolics, and flavonoids using advanced chromatographic techniques.

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.

Embryo sac haustorium in Dryas octopetala L. (Rosaceae)
The embryo sac haustorium found in <em>Dryas octopetala</em> L. from the Tatra Mts is the first record of its occurrence in <em>Rosaceae</em>. At the eight-nucleate stage of the embryo sac, the antipodal end of the central cell began to grow into a narrow caecum filled with dense cytoplasm and elongated in the chalazal direction
