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 ...

Genomic and Transcriptomic Analyses Provide Insights Into Erysiphe necator Pathogenicity and Grapevine Response. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Grapevine powdery mildew, caused by the fungus Erysiphe necator, is one of the most prevalent obligate biotrophic pathogens in vineyards, posing a significant threat to grape production. Despite its impact, research on E. necator pathogenicity and grapevine responses remains limited.

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 ...

The Enigma of Interspecific Plasmodesmata: Insight From Parasitic Plants
Parasitic plants live in intimate physical connection with other plants serving as their hosts. These host plants provide the inorganic and organic compounds that the parasites need for their propagation.

LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES DOMAIN 25 functions as a key regulator of haustorium development in dodders [PDF]
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.
