Pollinator is a housemate: Aeginetia indica, a parasite on Miscanthus sinensis, is pollinated by Ceratina bees nesting in its host

Plant Species Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 266-273, May 2025.
Aeginetia indica is a parasitic plant on Miscanthus sinensis. Through interval photography and direct observation, we identified Ceratina flavipes as its sole pollinator, which nests inside the stem of M. sinensis. This pollination system, which involves a mutual relationship between a parasitic plant and an insect inhabiting the same host plant, has ...

The Plant Vigor Hypothesis applies to a holoparasitic plant on a drought-stressed host [PDF]

, 2015
Parasitic plants extract resources from host vascular tissues but their responses to environmental fluctuation experienced by the host are poorly studied.

Taxonomy in the light of incongruence: An updated classification of Malvales and Malvaceae based on phylogenomic data

TAXON, Volume 74, Issue 2, Page 361-385, April 2025.
Abstract Malvales is a diverse order of flowering plants, economically and ecologically relevant, and it is known for its broad morphological variability. Recent phylogenomic studies have revealed a complex evolutionary history for the order, including localised phylogenetic discordances among nuclear loci.

The seed transcriptome of Rafflesia reveals horizontal gene transfer and convergent evolution: Implications for conserving the world's largest flower

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 448-466, March 2025.
Rafflesia is a genus of parasitic plants with the largest flowers in the world, unique to the threatened forest habitats of tropical Asia. Here, we report on genes that are active (the transcriptome) in Rafflesia seeds as part of a larger effort to understand Rafflesia.
