Parasitic Mistletoes of the Genera Scurrula and Viscum: From Bench to Bedside
Molecules, 2016 The mistletoes, stem hemiparasites of Asia and Europe, have been used as medicinal herbs for many years and possess sophisticated systems to obtain nutrients from their host plants.

International Biological Flora: Loranthus europaeus*
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 4, April 2026.Loranthus europaeus is a deciduous hemiparasitic species native to Europe and western Asia, primarily parasitizing oaks. It forms xylem connections via haustoria, extracting water and nutrients while exhibiting high transpiration and low water‐use efficiency.

Spatial and molecular aspects of hemiparasites parasitising Acacia spp.
, 2017 In terrestrial ecosystems, many plant species (ca. 1% of all plant species) haveevolved a parasitic strategy by which they acquire many (and sometimes all) of theresources they need for growth and reproduction by tapping into the vascularsystems of ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2226-2240, April 2026.ABSTRACT The Orobanchaceae family, the largest group of parasitic plants, spans a complete spectrum from autotrophic to holoparasitic species. As a typical endangered holoparasitic species within this family, Cistanche deserticola is a parasitic plant that is widely harvested for traditional medicine in desertic regions, and of growing importance as a ...

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 13, 3 March 2026.Merging materials processing tricks inspired by mussel and mistletoe fiber fabrication, solutions of cationic mussel byssus proteins were mixed with modified anionic nanocrystalline cellulose, producing distinctive core‐shell condensates. Simple processing of condensate suspensions using freeze‐drying produced hierarchically structured porous protein ...

Mitochondrial genome evolution in parasitic plants
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019 Background Parasitic plants rely on their host to cover their nutritional requirements either for their entire life or a smaller part of it. Depending on the level of parasitism, a proportional reduction on the plastid genome has been found.

Native hemiparasite and light effects on photoprotection and photodamage in a native host
Functional Plant Biology, 2015 Plants infected with hemiparasites often have lowered rates of photosynthesis, which could make them more susceptible to photodamage. However, it is also possible that infected plants increase their photoprotective capacity by changing their pigment content and/or engagement of the xanthophyll cycle.
