Journal of Applied EcologyAbstract Alien plant invasions are a recognised threat to biodiversity. Although experimental evidence remains limited, their success may be reduced by parasitic plants, which have been proposed as promising biocontrol agents.

The complete chloroplast genome of Elytranthe Albida (Loranthaceae), a hemiparasitic shrub [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2019 The complete chloroplast genome (plastome) of Elytranthe albida (Blume) Blume (Loranthaceae) was sequenced. The plastome is 128,658 bp in length, which encodes 96 unique genes, including 64 protein-coding genes, 4 rRNAs, and 28 tRNAs. The complete plastome-based phylogeny indicated that E. albida is sister to remaining Loranthaceae species.

PLoS ONE, 2018 Santalales is a large order, with over 2200 species, most of which are root or aerial (stem) hemiparasites. In this study, we report the newly assembled chloroplast genome of Dendrotrophe varians (140,666 bp) in the family Amphorogynaceae and the cp ...

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3716-3731, June 2026.Summary Stomatal closure prevents significant water losses during drought events. Yet, leaves are not perfectly hermetic and dehydration ensues through residual water losses, known as minimum conductance (gmin), which is highly relevant since it informs on the water depletion dynamics under stress.

Habitat quality and population size as determinants of performance of two endangered hemiparasites
, 2010 Optimal understanding of biodiversity threats must consider the effects of population size and habitat quality on population viability. I examined the effects and relative importance of these factors for the performance of two endangered hemiparasitic ...

European mistletoe shares a similar demographic strategy with non‐parasitic plants
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.European mistletoe (Viscum album) does not have a distinct demographic strategy from non‐parasitic plants, as quantified by time‐based life history traits. We found that mistletoe vital rates were driven by mistletoe size and position in the host tree.

Bridging the physiology and ecology of hemiparasitic plants
, 2021 Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 2021Metabolism based on photosynthesis is a defining feature of plants. However, some flowering plant lineages have adopted a heterotrophic lifestyle based on parasitism, either reducing or completely abandoning ...

Pollination of hemiparasites (Loranthaceae) by spider hunters (Nectariniidae) in the canopy of a Bornean tropical rain forest [PDF]
, 1997 We observed pollination process of three hemiparasites, Loranthaceae, Amylotheca duthieana (King) Danser, Trithecanthera sparsa Barlow and T. xiphostachys Tiegh. Flowers of these three species were cylindrical with different corolla lengths. Flowers of A.

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 945-957, April 2026.Abstract Roadsides can provide habitats, refuges and corridors for various plant and insect species. Preserving and enhancing these ecosystems can mitigate biodiversity loss and improve connectivity in fragmented landscapes. Despite growing evidence supporting biodiversity‐friendly management strategies, large‐scale implementation has not been realized.
