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 ...

One organ to infect them all: the Cuscuta haustorium [PDF]
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 ...

IAA-Mediated Haustorium Formation in Phelipanche aegyptiaca: Transcriptional Insights and Anti-Parasitic Strategies [PDF]
Phelipanche aegyptiaca is an obligate root-parasitic weed that parasitizes crop roots, threatening the safety of agricultural production. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the formation of P. aegyptiaca haustorium remain largely unclear. Here,

Cuscuta species: Model organisms for haustorium development in stem holoparasitic plants [PDF]
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.
