Does light influence the relationship between a native stem hemiparasite and a native or introduced host?

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2016
Background and Aims: There have been very few studies investigating the influence of light on the effects of hemiparasitic plants on their hosts, despite the fact that hemiparasites are capable of photosynthesis but also access carbon (C) from their ...

Chemical Traits of Hemiparasitism in Odontites luteus

Chemistry & Biodiversity, 2017
The study of the monoterpene glycosides content of Odontites luteus has shown the presence of a total of fifteen iridoid glucosides. The presence of compounds 1 – 5 and 7 – 10 is perfectly on‐line with both the biogenetic pathway for iridoids biosynthesis in Lamiales and the current botanical classification of the species.

Resource limitation and the role of a hemiparasite on a restored prairie

Oecologia, 2012
Hemiparasitic plants tend to thrive in and significantly affect plant communities in low-nutrient, high-light environments. Hemiparasites are assumed to be weak competitors for light but strong parasites, leading to the prediction that effects on hosts and communities should be a function of resource supply.

Phenotypic variation of the hemiparasite Pedicularis densiflora

2021
Phenotypic variation allows plants to survive in a wide variety of environments and has been a topic of study for many decades. However, relatively little is known about the effect of biotic and abiotic factors on the phenotypic variation of parasitic plants.

Does nitrogen affect the interaction between a native hemiparasite and its native or introduced leguminous hosts? [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2017
© 2016 The Authors. New Phytologist © 2016 New Phytologist Trust Associations between plants and nitrogen (N)-fixing rhizobia intensify with decreasing N supply and come at a carbon cost to the host.

Nutritional studies of Hemiparasitic Orthocarpus (Scrophulariaceae)

Journal of Experimental Botany, 1978
Excised shoot tips from Orthocarpus attenautus and O. purpurascens were cultured in vitro to ascertain whether the stem tips of these hemiparasites require complex organic substances for their development, and to determine if the capacity for haustoria formation is retained by the resulting plantlets.

COMPOUNDS OF BENZOIC ACID IN HEMIPARASITIC SCROPHULARIACEAE

Acta Botanica Neerlandica, 1973
SUMMARY It is demonstrated that ethanolic extracts from a number of hemiparasitic Scrophulariaceae species contain a compound with an absorption maximum at 230 nm, which is absent in nonparasitic members of the family. The peak at 230 nm could be attributed to benzoic acid.

Mathematical modelling of the population dynamics of hemiparasitic plants

open access: yes, 2014
The hemiparasite-host interaction is rather complex, acting as parasitism belowground and as competition for light aboveground. Studies modelling this interaction are rare. The most recent model of the hemiparasite-host interaction was developed from the well-known Rosenzweig-MacArthur predator-prey model by Fibich et al. (2010).

Hemiparasitic Flowering Plants: Phenotypic Canalization by Hosts

Nature, 1970
THE idea of combining the desired qualities of two distinct genotypes is old and universally appreciated. The genetic information can be brought together in two ways: within the same zygote through hybridization; or, for example, in higher plants, by grafting the stem of a superior fruit onto a particularly hardy root system.

A COMPARISON OF THE MINERAL RELATIONS OF A HALOPHYTIC HEMIPARASITE AND HOLOPARASITE

Acta Botanica Neerlandica, 1986
The mineral relations of the halophytic root hemiparasite Odontites verna ssp. serotina and stem holoparasite Cuscuta salina var. major were compared. The xylem hemiparasite Odontites occurs on the upper parts of Dutch Wadden salt marshes attached to the roots of salt excluding monocotyledonous plant species. Cuscuta was sampled in San Francisco Bay (U.
