Phylogeny and origins of holoparasitism in Orobanchaceae
American Journal of Botany, 2013• Premise: Orobanchaceae are a family of angiosperms that range from fully autotrophic and free‐living to completely heterotrophic and dependent on their hosts (holoparasites). Most of the ca. 2060 species are hemiparasites that photosynthesize throughout all or part of their life cycles.

A COMPARISON OF THE MINERAL RELATIONS OF A HALOPHYTIC HEMIPARASITE AND HOLOPARASITE
Acta Botanica Neerlandica, 1986The mineral relations of the halophytic root hemiparasite Odontites verna ssp. serotina and stem holoparasite Cuscuta salina var. major were compared. The xylem hemiparasite Odontites occurs on the upper parts of Dutch Wadden salt marshes attached to the roots of salt excluding monocotyledonous plant species. Cuscuta was sampled in San Francisco Bay (U.

Cytonuclear coevolution in a holoparasitic plant with highly disparate organellar genomes
Plant Molecular Biology, 2022Contrasting substitution rates in the organellar genomes of Lophophytum agree with the DNA repair, replication, and recombination gene content. Plastid and nuclear genes whose products form multisubunit complexes co-evolve. The organellar genomes of the holoparasitic plant Lophophytum (Balanophoraceae) show disparate evolution.

Current Biology, 2022
The plastid and nuclear genomes of parasitic plants exhibit deeply altered architectures,1-13 whereas the few examined mitogenomes range from deeply altered to conventional.14-20 To provide further insight on mitogenome evolution in parasitic plants, we report the highly modified mitogenome of Rhopalocnemis phalloides, a holoparasite in Balanophoraceae.

Evidence for plastome loss in the holoparasitic Mystropetalaceae
New PhytologistAbstract Plastome loss is an extremely unusual phenomenon in land plants, even for those that lose their photosynthetic ability. To date, evidence for plastome loss has only been presented for two holoparasitic angiosperm lineages: two genera ( Rafflesia and Sapria

Host Location and Selection by Holoparasitic Plants
2009Parasitic and carnivorous plants that adopt a heterotrophic lifestyle encounter novel environmental challenges that are shared with other heterotrophs, such as the need to locate hosts or lure prey and the need to overcome the defenses of their intended victims.

Observations on Plastid Fine-Structure in the Holoparasitic Angiosperm Epifagus Virginiana
American Journal of Botany, 1980The ultrastructure of plastids in cortex and phloem parenchyma cells of Epifagus virginiana (L.) Bart. is described. Based upon morphology and content, several distinct plastid types appear to exist. “Tubular” complexes, lipid globules and electron dense inclusions in different arrangements appear to account for the degree of plastid variability.
