Transcriptome analysis of mistletoe (Viscum album) haustorium development

Horticulture, Environment, and Biotechnology, 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 from mature mistletoe seeds was examined. We have generated a cDNA library that is an excellent source

Constructing Haustorium-Specific cDNA Libraries from Rust Fungi [PDF]

, 2011
The haustorium is a distinguishing feature of biotrophic plant pathogens. Several highly diverged -pathogen classes have independently evolved haustoria, suggesting that they represent an effective adaptation for growing within living plant tissue.

Effects of Sulfated Modification on the Structural Characterization and Antioxidant Activities of Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.)Haustorium Polysaccharide [PDF]

Shipin gongye ke-ji
To investigate the effect of sulfated modification on the structure and function of coconut haustorium polysaccharide (CHP), three kinds of sulfated coconut haustorium polysaccharides (SCHP-2, SCHP-3, and SCHP-4) were prepared using sulfation reagents ...

Exploring the lichenization continuum through the marine tripartite symbiosis of Collemopsidium pelvetiae. [PDF]

Am J Bot
Abstract Premise Symbioses between lichen‐forming fungi and brown algae (phaeophytes) are extremely rare. We investigated the interactions between the marine fungus Collemopsidium pelvetiae and its two photosynthetic partners, the brown alga Pelvetia canaliculata and a cyanobacterial symbiont to address questions on symbiosis biology, lichenization ...

Haustorium Inducing Factors for Parasitic Orobanchaceae

Haustorium Inducing Factors for Parasitic Orobanchaceae
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 processes responsible for such parasitic relationships remain largely unknown.

Strigolactones initiate the formation of haustorium-like structures in Castilleja

iScience
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.

Effects of Benzoquinones on Radicles of Orobanche and Phelipanche Species

Plants, 2021
The holoparasitic broomrape weeds (Orobanche and Phelipanche species) cause severe yield losses throughout North Africa, the Middle East, and Southern and Eastern Europe. These parasitic weeds form an haustorium at the tip of their radicles to infect the

A roadmap of haustorium morphogenesis in parasitic plants

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2023
AbstractParasitic 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. Although parasitism has evolved independently in plants, haustoria formation follows a similar mechanism throughout different plant species, highlighting the developmental ...

Interspecific Signaling Between the Parasitic Plant and the Host Plants Regulate Xylem Vessel Cell Differentiation in Haustoria of Cuscuta campestris

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The genus Cuscuta is stem parasitic angiosperms that parasitize a wide range of vascular plants via de novo formation of a distinctive parasitic organ called a haustorium.
