Parasitic flowering plant collections embody the extended specimen
The widespread digitization of natural history collections, combined with novel tools and approaches is revolutionizing biodiversity science. The ‘extended specimen’ concept advocates a more holistic approach in which a specimen is framed as a diverse ...

Embryological studies inMecardonia procumbens (Miller) small [PDF]
Sporogeneses, development of gametophytes, endosperm and embryo ofMecardonia procumbens (Miller) Small have been described. The wall of the microsporangium consists of an epidermis, an endothecium, a middle layer and a glandular tapetum.

The haustorium as a driving force for speciation in thallus-forming Laboulbeniomycetes
Laboulbeniomycetes is a class of fungi that have obligate associations with arthropod hosts, either for dispersal (order Pyxidiophorales) or as biotrophic parasites (orders Herpomycetales and Laboulbeniales).

Comparative Metabolomics of Early Development of the Parasitic Plants Phelipanche aegyptiaca and Triphysaria versicolor. [PDF]
Parasitic weeds of the family Orobanchaceae attach to the roots of host plants via haustoria capable of drawing nutrients from host vascular tissue. The connection of the haustorium to the host marks a shift in parasite metabolism from autotrophy to at ...

LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES DOMAIN 25 functions as a key regulator of haustorium development in dodders
Parasitic plants reduce crop yield worldwide. Dodder (Cuscuta campestris) is a stem parasite that attaches to its host, using haustoria to extract nutrients and water. We analyzed the transcriptome of six C.

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

Pscroph, a parasitic plant EST database enriched for parasite associated transcripts
Background Parasitic plants in the Orobanchaceae develop invasive root haustoria upon contact with host roots or root factors. The development of haustoria can be visually monitored and is rapid, highly synchronous, and strongly dependent on host factor ...
