Fertile Soils Increase Susceptibility of Pinus sylvestris to Cronartium pini

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cronartium pini, Scots pine blister rust, is a rust fungus that has caused severe damage in both old and young Scots pine (P. sylvestris) forest stands in northern Fennoscandia. To understand the many drivers of these outbreaks we examined putative factors and their explanatory power of C.

Fast and abundant in vitro spontaneous haustorium formation in root hemiparasitic plant Pedicularis kansuensis Maxim. (Orobanchaceae)

open access: yesPlant Diversity, 2018
Haustorium formation is the characteristic feature of all parasitic plants and a vital process for successful parasitism. Previous investigations on haustorium initiation and development are constricted to induced processes by host-derived signals or ...

Dodder seedlings benefit from apoplastic nutrition by inducing SWEET15‐mediated unloading of sucrose from the host's phloem

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 2, Page 829-842, October 2026.
Cuscuta reflexa infection sites. Summary Cuscuta species are holoparasitic plants that penetrate host stems with haustoria, connect to the vasculature and exhaust water, nutrients and carbohydrates. Parasite seedlings possess only limited maternal reserves and the development of a vascular connection takes several days.

How does elevated grassland productivity influence populations of root hemiparasites? Commentary on Borowicz and Armstrong (Oecologia 2012)

open access: yes, 2013
In their recent study, Borowicz and Armstrong (Oecologia 169:783–792, 2012) investigated effects of nutrient availability and competition for light on a perennial root hemiparasite Pedicularis canadensis.

Host Range and Selectivity of the Hemiparasitic Plant Thesium chinense (Santalaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2008
Thesium chinense is a hemiparasitic plant that is common in grassland habitats of eastern Asia. Although the physiology of Thesium has been well studied in attempts to control its weedy habit, there have been few ecological investigations of its parasitic life history.

Tripartite Symbiosis Between Legumes, Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Nitrogen Fixing Rhizobia: Interactions and Regulation

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 3789-3807, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Legume plants can interact with nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) simultaneously, forming a tripartite symbiotic association. Co‐inoculation studies performed on a variety of legumes have shown that rhizobia and AMF influence each other when they co‐occur in tripartite association and affect host plant ...

Interactions of inbreeding and stress by poor host quality in a root hemiparasite [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2016
Populations of many hemiparasitic plants are fragmented and threatened by inbreeding depression (ID). In addition, they may also be strongly affected by a lack of suitable host species. However, nothing is known about possible interactive effects of inbreeding and host quality for parasitic plants.

A phylogenomic analysis and revised infrageneric classification of Thesium (Santalaceae)

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract A phylogenomic analysis and revised infrageneric classification of Thesium (Santalaceae) is presented based on targeted enrichment using the Angiosperms353 probe set. This first targeted sequencing study includes 137 samples representing 106 species (approximately 32% of the genus).
