Interactions between hemiparasitic plants and their hosts [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2010 Hemiparasitic plants display a unique strategy of resource acquisition combining parasitism of other species and own photosynthetic activity. Despite the active photoassimilation and green habit, they acquire substantial amount of carbon from their hosts.

Hemiparasitic plants in Irish grasslands
, 2022 Hemiparasitic plants are those which steal water and nutrients from other plants, but still photosynthesise (so are green). They are an interesting part of the Irish flora, and some can play an important role in grasslands by weakening other plants – particularly Yellow Rattle.

The Population Biology of Annual Grassland Hemiparasites. I. The Host Environment [PDF]
Evolution, 1970 Two traits are common to all hemiparasitic plants: the ability to form root grafts with other plants via haustoria, and the presence of functional chlorophyll. Beyond this, further generalizations are not easily made. Hemiparasites grow as annuals, biennials, perennials, woody shrubs, vines and trees in a variety of habitats ranging from equatorial to ...
